  1. Vision Quest

    Vision Quest is a 1985 coming of age drama film starring Matthew Modine, Linda Fiorentino, and Ronny Cox. It is based on Terry Davis' novel of the same name. In some countries, the title of the film was changed to market on Madonna's emerging fame and the popularity of the song. The film was shot in Spokane, Washington, in 1984. Modine plays a Spokane high school wrestler who falls in love with an older woman, an aspiring artist from New Jersey on her way to San Francisco. The film includes an appearance by Madonna, her first in a major motion picture, playing a singer at a local bar, where she performs the songs "Crazy for You" and "Gambler". John Irving was quoted as saying Vision Quest is "the truest novel about growing up since The Catcher in the Rye."
