19 Comedy Scenes From ’80s And ’90s Movies That Are Shockingly Problematic Today

“Never Been Kissed with Drew Barrymore.

Her 25-year-old character Josie enrolls in high school, no questions asked, as part of an undercover story for the newspaper she’s working for. Her teacher ends up falling for Josie due to her intelligence and maturity, despite the fact that he thinks she’s only 17. She’s unpopular with the other kids, though, and to boost her image, her cool older brother enrolls in high school again, and no one bats an eye, and absolutely no one is suspicious or questions anything at all. He just hangs out with teenage girls all day who are throwing themselves at him. Oh, and the school throws this costume party dance, and he shows up pantsless as Tom Cruise’s character in Risky Business.

Of course, her cover is blown, mayhem ensues and misunderstandings abound. Her teacher is absolutely pissed at her and feels betrayed when he figures out she’s actually 25 and not 17! Instead of being relieved that she’s not actually a minor, he’s more angry that she deceived him.”
