'80s All Over
March 1983
Before we even get into how surprisingly good this month is, let's just say there's a movie here that could be considered one of the most influential movies almost no one has seen, and without telling you what it is, I'll just say that we'll cover a lot of hip-hop films this decade, and it all starts here. Did we mention it's March of 1983already? And that it's a better month than we expected? I mean, we can make the case for at least two all-timers this month, and maybe three, and that's not counting the really solid triples that are also packed in there.
John Sayles? Sure. Neil Simon? If we must. Young Sean Penn versus Young Esai Morales? Bring it on. Chuck Bronson makes it sleazy, THE BEYOND makes it weird, and Tom Selleck desperately tries to make up for the worst decision of his career.
Stay gold, Pony Boy. It's time for a new '80s ALL OVER.
