    Music in Movies on Mondays: Jim Carroll in Tuff Turf

    Like most Gen Xers, I have a serious soft spot in my heart for '80s coming-of-age films, particularly if they involve committed ne'er-do-wells, muscle cars or bizarre cameos. 1985's cult hit Tuff Turf offers all three, culminating nicely with a warehouse party where Jim Carroll performs "It's Too La ...

    Why Don't They Hand Out Awards for DVD Extras?
