Musical Montage: Ace Hits the Big Time

Something special for this week’s Musical Montage as we’re highlighting some choice musical scenes from the CBS Schoolbreak Special, Ace Hits the Big Time from 1984.  The movie, based on a children’s novel of the same name, follows Horace “Ace” Hobart as he starts the school year at his new school, Manhattan’s Kennedy High.  He wears an eye patch for some reason and becomes of interest to the local gang of toughs, The Falcons.  As you’ll see in one of the clips below, The Falcons are perhaps the most fabulous and flamboyant gang in movie history, making even the Sharks and Jets of West Side Story look like the Bloods and Crips.  It is easily one of the most hilariously bad things you will ever see so don’t waste any more time and check out the clips below.
