April 1 1988 

Written by Jay McInerney from his own novel, and directed by James Bridges, BRIGHT LIGHTS, BIG CITY opens nationally. Slight, overly familiar cautionary tale set in late '80s NYC with mis-cast Michael J Fox's yuppie watching his journalistic career self implode in an eddying swirl of cocaine & dusk til dawn nightclubbing. Co-staring Keifer Sutherland and Phoebe Cates.
