Olive Penderghast (Emma Stone) in Easy A spoke for millions of teenage girls across America when she said, “Whatever happened to chivalry? Does it only exist in ‘80s movies?

I want Judd Nelson thrusting his fist into the air because he knows he got me. Just once I want my life to be like an ‘80s movie, preferably one with a really awesome musical number for no apparent reason. But no, no, John Hughes did not direct my life.”
