Real Genius

Here is an article about the 30-year old movie Real Genius, which includes some of the creation of the female lead, Jordan. The author was a classmate of mine.
It's a movie I've seen at least half a dozen times, and could cheerfully watch again. We were well aware of the movie's impending creation at Tech because they asked a number of current students (including Phyllis) for detailed help. For those who have never seen it, the movie's physical look is scarily similar to Caltech (my alma mater) and they get the feel of the place right as well. I find it much more recognizable than the Caltech of The Big Bang Theory. --Bob
