This movie is such a moment in time. MJF was so young on top of the world. And David Foster’s score just compliments it’s so much. You just have to enjoy every moment of your life. It goes so fast.

[@GisherJohn24]

I always thought this sounded like the Wind beneath my wings on the Refrain! Good song nonetheless. St Elmos Fire love theme also similar

[@jrowlet]

​@@GisherJohn24David Foster did soundtracks for both "St. Elmo's Fire" and "Secret of My Success."

[@The_Lone_Wolf_Emperor_]

This movie wouldn't be the same without the soundtracks!!!

[@rw5961]

I love this movie, it totally influenced and changed my life. Growing up on the countryside in Bavaria, southern Germany I totally could relate to the story of Brantley Foster from Kansas who goes to the big city to chase after his dreams in far away America. I watched the movie for the first time when I was 8 in 1991 in German TV and since then wanted to be like this guy, believing that everything is possible. I loved the positivity of the movie and the uplifting tone. Today, I`m 30 years older, managing director of my own company and always chased after my dreams. All this, set off with this wonderful movie and its hopeful positive vibe...

The things i love about this particular scene is how lovely the smitten and proud look in aunt Vera expression when watching Brantley charmed all the guest that he just met. In my opinion, the late Margaret Whitton was a scene stealer in this movie. Not to mention very gorgeus .

[@patrickmckeown3841]

I would give up everything just to go back and relive the wonderful 80's, a total recourse! Things would be so much different! 52 yrs old now and still think about it!!

[@PaulHussey01]

80’s were the best. Unless your teen years were the 70’s. Or 90’s, or 60’s. Or 00’s. Etc… It’s amazing how people always fail to spot that it’s being young that they miss. They think that it was the decade that was great rather than the fact that they were young then. Still, the 80’s were objectively the best.

[@pjdexter168]

I absolutely love this movie. I always wanted to be Michael J Fox in this film. I watch it at least 5 times a year.

[@davidleoncavallo6384]

me too

[@DocnavyPG]

Same here. I must watch it at least 5 times

[@garyrossetti2443]

Hell yeah this movie is one of Michael J. Fox finest films and roles love it❤

[@abinashmishra329]

In a way, I like to think of this movie as what is happening to a humbler version of Alex Keaton when he moves to NYC. This is my favorite comedy of MJF’s after BTTF Trilogy and Family Ties.

[@jrowlet]

The best role of MJF was in this movie. His role in BTTF trilogy was good, but it was better in this movie.

[@davidleoncavallo6384]

Love the positive 80's movies, much like Brantley Foster (Carlton Whitfield), we all have it in us to be great at what we know is right and true. This is a reminder to me from many years ago that anything is possible, even if others don’t think you’re capable or have the right pedigree to do it.

[@richardtoplitsky5143]

[@MrRadiorobot]

RIP Margaret Whitton..she played the run away best character of Aunt Vera in this movie... Bless her xxxxx

Such is the power of David Foster's music, that the entire Gazebo montage is driven by his score (only the dog had a speaking part lol).

One of the things I learned when I was a kid and I watched this movie: pay attention to everyone. You never know who they know. Watch the whole field. You might miss pieces moving. Oh, and don't be afraid to smile.

LOVE this film! Just re-watched it recently on Netflix and all the feels I've experienced as a 15yr old back in 87 came back like a flood. The soundtrack is so 80s and dope: extra mention for the music in this scene!

[@wyup]

The music follows so well the scenes. Undeniable optimism.

[@cluman1]

You couldn't get more 80's than this. Foster's music score and the Fox man himself doing his best Alex P. Keaton impression.

[@martinb.770]

There's literally NOTHING, absolutely not a single other thing in my life, that brings me back down, when upset, stressed or out of sync, like this inconspicuous 100sec-tune does !!

One of the all-time great montages - he even wins over the dog! MJF, legend, Canadian.

[@keithsmove]

The movie that proved that being in the right place at the right time is so critical to one's future sucesses.....

[@megaclubpro]

I think we loved the eighties because we were young and innocent and life was fresh and exciting. I think this movie inspired a lot of us to go and work in the financial markets. I only worked there briefly and realised that it wasn't nearly as romantic as the movie made out. I still love reminiscing about the 80s and this movie is was one of my favourites. I love Vera's facial expression at 1.03. 80s music and movies were the best!!!

[@gwynmaverickjames6098]

Love the film one of his best roles,haven’t seen it years

[@gravics]

Great scene and a fun movie. David Foster's music is perfection.

[@andreagallo1996]

It's always a pleasure to watch even just a tiny bit of this heartwarming movie! A great classic from the Micheal J. Fox 80s collection!

[@BlackAngus555]

If u can notice but at 1:35, even though Vera is still physically attracted to Brantley, she's looking at him for the first time being proud of her nephew, him controlling the crowd with his knowledge of a better future for business, his ideas and suggestions for what can make companies better cause he has the passion and the pedigree for it, all it took was the right person to lead him to the right crowd and now he has them eating out of the palm of his hand :) In the best way possible, him accidentally sleeping with Vera before finding out she was his Aunt and even finding out after the fact was the best thing that could have happened to him :)

[@josephlugo5772]

Thanks for the synopsis ...

[@garyrossetti2443]

Yeah, that scene probably gave Aunt Vera the idea that Brantley was the right person to be in charge of her company now.

[@abinashmishra329]

Poor MJF…playing characters whose female relatives get attracted to him sexually. (Though in this movie they don’t share a chromosome)

[@realitybites4144]

[@rbilleaud]

The plot of this movie was so unique and offbeat, it had to be successful. Think of the great 80's movies, they were all great because they were fresh - Weird Science, Secret of My Success, Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, etc. They had never done movies about those things before, or targeted that demographic of 12 to 21 year olds. The movies were at the same time contemporary and timeless. This is probably my all-time favorite movie.

[@jimmyskivench2654]

Did you guys know that they were planning a sequel for this movie on the 90's ? unfortunately it got canceled .... :(

[@JamminOnThe1]

I heard this as well. I think Michael J. Fox's movie "For Love or Money" was pretty much the same movie as Secret of My Success. A young guy who wants success and falls for a beautiful woman who is the mistress of his boss (rich, older man). He gets both success and the girl in the end. Both movies take place in NYC but I think The Secret of My Success was a fresher and more energetic movie and was a hit while the other flopped.

[@jimmyskivench2654]

yeah, the secret of my success was a great movie, specially that the movie was more focussing in how the character will make it to the top, someting that people love it to see in late 80s movies . also for love of money had a great cast, the movie was very well made, how they present the hotel idea and how Michael J Fox play his character was great, but for some reason the movie flopped, something that i didn't understand, for a 90s, getting the girl and love is what all about since success is not the what the movie really about, but love and having the girl. and again i think if they had done a good promotion for this movie, it would been have a "success" too .
