The scene I remember from this movie is at or near the beginning. It’s something like a wedding reception or a homecoming or prom or something (I think it’s a wedding reception, though) and there is a band playing a cover of Fleetwood Mac’s _Turn Around_ (you know, the one that goes: “every now and then I get a little bit terrified/ and then I see the look in your eyes/ turn around/ bright eyes”) except that as the singer gets more into the song he starts singing it like this: “every now and then I get a little bit terrified/ then I see that fuckin’ look in your eyes!/ turn around/ turn the fuck around!/ bright eyes” and so forth. Anyone recognize this scene? Or was this some weird dream I had and only think that it’s real? ---

Don’t recognize the movie, but I can tell you you’ve got the band wrong. Fleetwood Mac didn’t do that song; it was Bonnie Tyler. Incidentally, the same song was featured rather prominently in “Bandits” with Bruce Willis and Billy Bob Thornton, but I’m really pretty sure there was no wedding/reception scene in that one. ---

I can’t identify the movie (although it _sounds_ familiar–did we possibly have the same strange dream? 🙂 ), but I _can_ tell you that the song you’re thinking of is actually “Total Eclipse of the Heart” by Bonnie Tyler, not Fleetwood Mac. ---

Oh, and the correct title of the song is “Total Eclipse of the Heart (Turn Around)”. ---

Is it [_Old School_](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0302886/)? According to IMDb, it contains both this song (performed by “The Dan Band”) and a wedding. (Searched IMDb for Bonnie Tyler, then Total Eclipse, then Jim Steinman as composer) ---

I figured out why I thought it was Fleetwood Mac; I was remembering the music video and I remember thinking that Bonnie Tyler looked like a hybrid of Christine McVie and Stevie Nicks. ---
