The teen movie Pretty in Pink presents a gendered dichotomy that exists between females as musical connoisseurs and males as emotional performers that is far from rare within the teen movie genre of the mid-1980's to early 2000's. These recurring tropes raise important questions about the teen movie genre and its use of popular music. How and why does the teen movie divide its musical scores along gendered lines? What do these musical differences tell us about the contrast between female and male adolescence?
