Someone asked how old Baby and Johnny were in it.
Baby was only 15 and thats why her dad was so mad. if she had been 17 that would have been different.
I reemember that because she could always play young teenagers at that time (red dawn was a good example).

Baby was 18, she was joining the peace corps possibly or going to college. Johnny was probably supposed to be in his EARLY twenties. Baby's dad was mad about their relationship because he thought Johnny was a bad guy and not good enough for his daughter.

She was supposed to be 17 because she had just graduated high school and was heading to college in the Fall. Remember at the beginning of the movie when they're in the car she gives information about her age.
