Timing is everything in Hollywood, but only those granted the timeless appeal have it in them to stand tall through thick and thin. In Tinseltown’s ever-shifting galaxy, where stars often flicker and fade, Matthew Modine remains a steadfast constellation, never losing his shine to the treacherous tides of showbiz or the unrelenting march of time. Over four decades, he has donned many cinematic disguises, yet lately, he finds himself in a nostalgic orbit as the 40th anniversary of Vision Quest draws near.

Fresh off his recent tribute, Modine has once again summoned the spirit of Vision Quest, this time with a special gesture for his fans to make the milestone all the more unforgettable.

Stranger Things is inching closer to its last run in a few, but before that, Matthew Modine has been dedicating all his social hours to the forthcoming 40th anniversary of his 1985 film Vision Quest. The actor recently took to X to share the movie’s trailer from back in the day, joking about how it does not even “mention #wrestling once.” However, the latter part of the post caught every eye when Modine extended fans a chance to place their bids to win one of his original VHS tapes from 1985.

According to the actor, all the proceeds from those bids will support Full Metal Jacket Diary’s #VisionQuest40thAnniversary project. Modine attached an eBay link for the autographed Clamshell VHS tape, priced at $135.50, excluding shipping. The opportunity will end within 4 days from now, and it already has 23 bids. Hence, for anyone in a throwback mood interested in getting their hands on this super rare tape, this is their ultimate chance.

Though this may stand as fans’ only chance to celebrate Vision Quest’s milestone from the comfort of their couch, Matthew Modine recently kicked off his own with a unique Madonna tribute.

Not so long ago, Matthew Modine took to his Instagram to share the stunning poster of his 1985 film, Vision Quest, to thank Madonna and leave fans wheezing over the time warp. “Because I’m #crazyforyou - thank you @madonna,” the actor captioned the picture. For those who do not know, Vision Quest will mark 40 years since its release on February 15, in which Madonna made her first major motion picture appearance as a local bar singer.

In a bid to capitalize on her rising fame and the popularity of her track, ‘Crazy for You,’ the film’s title was changed to Crazy for You in certain countries, including the UK and Australia, cementing its cult classic reputation worldwide. Vision Quest stars Modine, Michael Schoeffling, Ronny Cox, and Linda Fiorentino and remains the highlight of the Stranger Things actor’s career to date. Thus, for anyone who plans to join Modine for the celebrations, the best way is to fasten their bids while there is time.
