Mystic Pizza

Mystic Pizza 1988 a movie about simple life, friends and everyday situations. The Director is Donald Petrie, starring Julia Roberts as Daisy Aroujo, her drama boring sister Kat (Anabeth Gish) and Jojo the friend of them both( Lily Tailor).




As the title says Mystic is the city where the story of three close friends takes place. Three girls who have just finished highschool and are working as waitresses at a pizza place called Mystic Pizza, being this the last summer where they won´t have to decide what comes next. The summer after highschool where every teen goes NUTS!A summer which will make them grow and they will always remember.

Main actress Julia Roberts plays the pretty careless young wild teen who lives an unplanned and sporadic life based on working and hanging out with boys in town. Her sister Kat is the completely opposite, the responsible one her mother is proud of and the one who is getting an scholarship for next term in Yale( talk about sister to sister competitions! One's got the looks and the other one´s got the brains!haaha).
 Following along goes Jojo,If you ask me, she's  the best character. A temper tramp kinda girl with lots of personality who dates the young love of her life, but is incapable of making a commitment.Perhaps she ain´t want to grow up and assume responsabilities.





This movie counts with the appearance of three types of boy stereotypes. The clasical prince charming Rich daddy boy, who drops out of college and is looking for adventures to piss off his family. Also, a simple and adorable town sailorman and the "I TOLD YOU SO" married man who hires a babysitter and ends up bamming her(typical).We can catch up on  the outfits of the time where the frizzy hair, long sweaters and long blazers take place.









Tears of laughter with everyday situations and daydreaming wishes of three girls who wish to fly away far from Mystic and discover themselves. A Love drama that positions all of the three in a non expected spiral of love that makes you feel the story as if you were part of it...sharing their heartbreaks and wonders.


"BOYS you can have'em many, but friends are counted with a hand(and in this case they are only three, so easy to follow).
Life is complicated as it is, but truth is,it always tastes better on a pizza with friends!


I guess we won´t sleep on the fact that we dont know the secret ingredient hidden beneath the MYSTIC PIZZA!!!
