Did you know
- TriviaAfter finishing this film, Jennifer Connelly and Maddie Corman both auditioned for the lead role in Labyrinth (1986). Initially, Corman was very much considered, but when Connelly auditioned it was clear to director Jim Henson that she was the right choice for the role of Sarah.
- Goofs(Open Matte Version) When Natalie talks to the Vice President and the senator, after she says, "I wrote you a letter," a very tiny bit of the boom mic is visible for one second at the top of the screen.
- Quotes
Polly Franklin: Boys, Nat! Did you know that they have straight ones and bent ones? And if you look at their hands you can tell how big it is? I mean, can you imagine owning this thing with a will of its own? Don't you think about it all the time?
Natalie Becker: [rolls her eyes] Actually Polly, no.
Polly Franklin: They do weird things. You have a thought, it stands right up! Isn't it amazing? I mean, I can't imagine what it would be like to have one! Can you?
Natalie Becker: Polly!

Featured review
A rare teen gem!
While other 80's teen movies get all the glory, this movie is worth taking a good looking into. "Seven Minutes in Heaven" is an angst on the art of coming of age. Most of the themes is love, sex, and relationships that come and go. Here you got Natalie(Jennifer Connelly) a brilliant, yet independent student who lets her friend Jeff(Byron Thames) stay at her house after a big fight with his stepfather(Marshall Bell). Then there's Polly(Maddie Corman) who has the toughest time in school finding a boyfriend. So what does she do? Falls in love worth a baseball player from New York named Zoo(Billy Wirth) . Well, when Natalie dates one of Jeff's friends, she discovered he is anything but faithful. And Polly meeting with Zoo doesn't go the way she wished for. All the pandemonium is going on all around. Jeff's mother tries her best to bring her son home, and make a connection with the new stepfather. As for Natalie, she just need to open up, and be more forward with everyone. She lost her mother to leukemia. Polly on the other hand needs to be happy with herself and be true to herself. Yes, it's a pain to be goofy, but chasing the winds can make you more miserable. It's a fun movie, should be used for educational purposes in my opinion. Not too raunchy, very subtle. A keeper in the books. 2 out of 5 stars.
