Miracle at Ridgemont High
Maybe there's hope for the nation. Earlier this week the National Film Registry added 25 films to their list of art which must be preserved. This is an attempt to create a record of film history, keeping them accessible as a record of the media.
Added to this year's list: "Fast Times at Ridgemont High."
