Rosanna Arquette has a way about her.

Chicago Sun-Times
Rating: 3.5/5 --
Arquette, still green under the gills when this flick was made, doesn't light up the screen. Neither does Spano, despite being dubbed one of the "12 most promising young actors of 1983".

Rating: 3/5 --
One of John Sayles' lesser films, but Arquette and Spano are good, and Sayles manages to make an "opposites attract" story that doesn't seem stale.
Nitrate Online
As a filmmaker, Sayles still seems more likable than incisive or original, but it's a likability with a certain brilliance.

An uneven teenage romantic comedy by John Sayles.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
...It's Rosanna Arquette who makes BABY IT'S YOU persistently watchable...Arquette is clearly one of the sexiest young actresses on the screen today and her exceedingly alive performance shows great potential...

A labor of love for everyone involved.

Product Description:
Like GREASE without the song and dance, BABY IT'S YOU is a coming-of-age story about two mismatched lovers--Jill (Rosanna Arquette), a popular Jewish student about to go to college, and Sheik (Vincent Spano), an Italian trashman's son nicknamed after a condom brand. Beginning with the characters' love affair in a New Jersey high school in the 1960s, the film doesn't stop at senior prom night; instead, the film follows their complicated relationship as Jill goes to a woman's college and Sheik attempts to make it as a singer in Florida. The film, which director John Sayles considers one of his most autobiographical, was the first picture he made with financing from a major studio. After viewing Sayles's cut of the film, Paramount wanted to reedit the film to focus only on the characters' romance in high school. Sayles threatened to take his name off the project, and after the studio cut of the film did not test better with focus groups, his version of the film prevailed. Featuring Arquette in her first starring role, BABY IT'S YOU is an unsentimental look at one cross-class relationship.
