Watch the To All the Boys I've Loved Before Cast Act Out Iconic Teen Movie Moments
Jenny Han has a little something for fans of all the teen movies she's loved before.
The To All the Boys I've Loved Before author recently got the film's cast to act out memorable scenes from some of her favorite teen rom-coms from years past. She posted the clips on Twitter on Sunday, quipping that she'd "coerced them" into recreating the scenes because she's "a pushy queen."
Pushy or not, Jenny knows her teen movie classics. She posted remade scenes from four movies, three of which come from the 1980s and one from the late 1990s. All have stood the test of time so far.

The author kicked things off with perhaps the most iconic movie dance move ever, which comes from 1987's Dirty Dancing, starring Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze. The clip features To All the Boys I've Loved Before's Noah Centineo (Peter) and Lana Condor (Lara).

Jenny then backtracked a bit to 1985's The Breakfast Club, starring Molly Ringwald and Judd Nelson. She got Israel Broussard (Josh) to do the honors.

And then Jenny turned to the boombox scene from 1989's Say Anything, starring John Cusack and Ione Skye. This one, though, stars Madeleine Arthur (Chris).

Jenny wrapped her series of video posts with an homage to the bleacher scene from 1999's 10 Things I Hate About You, starring Heath Ledger and Julia Stiles, with Noah in the spotlight. Alas, apparently no one thought to use the bleachers to film one more tribute to Grease, the 1978 movie-musical starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John.
