Scream (1996) Scream (1996)
One of the most memorable opening scenes in horror cinema; Barrymore roams around her kitchen making popcorn and casually talking to the killer on her chunky white cordless. Too bad she ends up hanging from a tree.One of the most memorable opening scenes in horror cinema; Barrymore roams around her kitchen making popcorn and casually talking to the killer on her chunky white cordless.

E.T. the Extra Terrestrial (1982)E.T. the Extra Terrestrial (1982)
E.T. made a star of Barrymore aged just five (although she had first appeared aged four in Altered States). E.T. remained the highest-grossing film of all time for ten years until it was surpassed by Jurassic Park, another Steven Spielberg vehicle. It's a timeless tale of friendship, and family favourite to this day.E.T. made a star of Barrymore aged just five (although she had first appeared aged four in Altered States).

Never Been Kissed (1999)Never Been Kissed (1999)
Often voted among the top 90s teen films, Never Been Kissed is a high-school classic, although the story of a late 20-something reporter who enrolls in a high school (along with her brother) might be a pretty awkward pitch to make today. This scene is heartbreaking, so watch with care… Often voted among the top 90s teen films, Never Been Kissed is a high-school classic, although the story of a late 20-something reporter who enrolls in a high school (along with her brother) might be a pretty awkward pitch to make today.

The Wedding Singer (1998)The Wedding Singer (1998)
Describing a kiss as "not porno tongue, church tongue" is definitely one of the best lines to ever come out of a romantic comedy. This well-loved film plays host to one of the worst haircuts ever commited to celluloid via Adam Sandler, but it's a lot of fun.Describing a kiss as "not porno tongue, church tongue" is definitely one of the best lines to ever come out of a romantic comedy.

Riding in Cars with Boys (2001)Riding in Cars with Boys (2001)
A film in which Barrymore gets to show off her true acting chops – we all know she has great comic timing, but in RICWB she got to show she could be serious. Roger Ebert gave this real-life tale of a teen mum in the 60s ending up with a masters degree three-out-of-four stars. The scene below alongside Brittany Murphy is great.A film in which Barrymore gets to show off her true acting chops – we all know she has great comic timing, but in RICWB she got to show she could be serious.
