Stonekeeper's September Game: I recommend THIS Mystery Movie #630 - Get Down, Get Dirty [LauraGrace throws down with some RISKY BUSINESS]
Who's up for it?
I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guys are going to guess, I will give a hint that CONNECTS your guess with the movie I have in mind.
Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve a love triangle.

Hint 4: Joy (2015) - Drama genre in common.
Hint 5: Limbo (2001) - IMDB rating is swimming in the 6's.
Hint 6: Jersey Girl (2004) - Runtime under 2 hours.
Hint 7: Maggie's Plan (2015) - MPAA rated R.
Hint 8: Running with Scissors (2006) - Comedy genre in common.
Hint 9: Warm Bodies (2013) - USA/English.
LauraGrace once again nails it with Risky Business (1983), the movie that features Tom Cruise's star-making lead role in a quintessential coming of age tale with John Hughes levels of insight, drama, and multidimensional characters.
A caveat, though: As recommendable as this film is, I would suggest watching it paired with the alternate ending instead of the theatrical one. For one thing, it shows how editing and the final shots can entirely alter a movie's impact.
