With THE GOONIES, director Richard Donner tapped into a universal childhood desire to matter, to belong, to make a difference…and to follow a map to lost pirate treasure. From an original story by AFI Life Achievement Award recipient Steven Spielberg – who also executive produced and presented the movie – THE GOONIES was executive produced by AFI Board of Trustees Chair Kathleen Kennedy.

I was 14 when The Goonies premiered. I saw it 4 times that day. It remains as my all time favorite movie! I had a huge crush for Sean! I still do!! 😁❤️
