Happy Birthday Lea Thompson

Today we're raising a glass (of 1985 Pepsi, naturally) to the one and only Lea Thompson! Born on this day in Rochester, Minnesota, Lea trained as a ballet dancer before twirling her way into pop-culture immortality — and we're so glad she did.

She'll forever hold a place in our hearts as Lorraine Baines McFly in Back to the Future, where she somehow made us all root for and feel deeply weird about the same character across three timelines.
