Plot Sypnosis:

Jill's headed for college. Sheik's a drop-out, headed for nowhere. They're as different as day and night, but share a powerful bond: first love.

"There's the first one. There's the right one. And there's the one you never forget." Jill's a drama major, headed for college. Sheik's a drop-out, headed for nowhere. They're as different as day and night, but they share a powerful bond: first love. Rosanna Arquette (Desperately Seeking Susan), Vincent Spano (Over the Edge) and co-stars Tracy Pollan (Bright Lights, Big City), Matthew Modine (Birdy) and Robert Downey Jr. (Zodiac) team up in this memorable comedy-drama from filmmaker John Sayles (The Brother from Another Planet and The Return of the Secaucus Seven). Set against a '60s backdrop and an unbeatable soundtrack of classic rock and roll tunes, Baby It's You crafts a vivid portrait of young love in a complex era. But no matter when you went to school or first fell in love, Baby It's You is for you!

Working from an autobiographical story by producer Amy Robinson (Chilly Scenes of Winter and After Hours), Sayles approaches the material with an eye towards documentary-like realism and detail, so that this universal tale comes across with rare truth, poignancy and relatability. Made almost entirely in the Garden State, the film's hit-filled soundtrack is given a major shot in the arm via several songs by New Jersey's pre-eminent rock poet Bruce Springsteen and Hoboken-born Frank Sinatra. Boasting cinematography by renowned DP Michael Ballhaus (Goodfellas and The Marriage of Maria Braun), Baby It's You has been remastered from a new 4K scan of its original 35mm camera negative for this Blu-ray.
