Twilight with a Twist
Sitting at first place at box office for the third week in a row and having earned $500 million worldwide, 50 Shades of Grey is the movie on everyone 's mind.

Christian Slater was a great pick for the character J.D. because he was a fantastic actor and could play any character he wanted to. Though I really feel Heathers was the movie that helped him break out of soap operas in the long run. Both were nominated in 1990 by the Chicago Film Critics Association Awards; Winona for “Best Actress” and Christian for “Most Promising Actor (Heathers (1988)).”
