VIDEO: Why Lea Thompson Isn't In Touch With Charlie Sheen: 'I'm Not a Hooker'

Reason #1 why we love Lea Thompson, who just landed a new ABC Family pilot, Switched at Birth: She's the girl we all wanted to be in the '80s. Reason #2: She's like the estimable honey badger when it comes to real talk about her old Red Dawn co-star turned Qaddafi of Hollywood, Charlie Sheen.

Movieline's Carly Steel caught up with the lovely Thompson at the Film Independent Spirit Awards, where she pondered the possibility of a Back to the Future reboot, picked her favorite new Marty McFly candidate, played My Favorite Scene, and addressed the pop culture-dominating phenomenon that is the Sheenpocalypse.

    Carly, good questions, but stop looking at the camera when you're addressing a question to your guest. It pulls focus to you instead of to the person you're interviewing, and it's jarring. Otherwise, fab.
