I first became aware that this film existed from the below video about the Sunrise Mall in Texas where part of this movie was shot, and which remarkably looks almost exactly the same as it did more then 30 years ago, minus most of the stores and people. The Legend of Billie Jean is about siblings played by Helen and Christian Slater, who surprisingly are not actually related, who become outlaws after a series of incidents steaming from the wanton destruction of Christens prized motor scooter by the son of a local businessman. Billie Jean ends up becoming something of a folk hero and the nexus for a loosely defined youth movement who respond to her cry of 'Fair is Fair' and her sexy short haircut. The movies kind of ridiculous and extremely 80's, but might be worth checking out if you enjoy that type of thing. This is also the movie that the Pat Benatar song Invincible comes from. **1/2
