Adventures in Babysitting (1987): 12 Weird Facts You Didn’t Know! #iconicstarrewind #AdventuresInBabysitting #elisabethshue

Adventures in Babysitting doesn’t start like chaos. It starts like one ordinary suburban night. A canceled date. A quiet house. A babysitter who thinks the worst thing she’ll face is disappointment. Then the city opens up and the whole movie starts running on panic, luck, and pure 1980s momentum.

Casting the lead became a much bigger search than anyone expected for a single babysitter role.
