Some Kind Of Wonderful (1987)
Blue-collar high-school student Keith (Eric Stoltz) is so obsessed with Amanda (Lea Thompson)—to the point that he plans a lavish date to impress her and spends his entire college fund on a pair of diamond earrings for her—that he doesn’t notice his best friend Watts (Mary Stuart Masterson) is desperately in love with him.
Heartburn (1986)
Food writer Rachel (Meryl Streep) and political columnist Mark (Jack Nicholson) push through their own wounds from their previous failed marriages and Mark’s terrible reputation to try getting married to each other. It doesn’t go great! Nora Ephron adapted her own novel, a thinly veiled account of her marriage to Carl Bernstein.
Red Dawn (1984)
What happens when the Soviet Union, backed up by allies from Cuba and Nicaragua, invades the U.S.? A ragtag crew of high school students (led by Patrick Swayze’s Jed Eckert) band together, call themselves Wolverines, and employ guerrilla warfare to rebel against the occupiers.
Cross Creek (1983)
Based on the memoir of the same name, which tells the story of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings (Mary Steenburgen), who responds to her latest literary rejection by leaving her husband to run an orange grove in Florida. The property turns out to be in worse shape than Marjorie had expected, but as she tries to make a go of it while also continuing to write fiction, she strikes up meaningful relationships with her neighbors.
BMX Bandits (1983)
A trio of BMX bikers chance upon walkie talkies and sell them for quick cash, unaware that the gear was to have been used in a bank robbery, and thus unknowingly putting themselves in danger. Is this a great movie? Not really. But it is fun to see the origins of one of our greatest movie stars: it is the second-ever credit for one Ms. Nicole Kidman.
Flashdance (1983)
In Pittsburgh, Alex (Jennifer Beals) is a steel mill welder by day and an exotic dancer by night. It’s at her night job that she crosses paths with Nick (Michael Nouri), who owns the steel mill where she works. The two start dating while Alex tries to pursue her dream of formal dance study, despite her feelings of insecurity.
The French Lieutenant’s Woman (1981)
This adaptation of John Fowles’s novel proceeds on two narrative tracks. First, in the Victorian era, amateur naturalist Charles Smithson is involved with haunted Sarah Woodruff, the French Lieutenant’s Woman of the title. Then there’s a contemporary early ’80s plot about actors filming Charles and Sarah’s story; both tracks star Jeremy Irons and Meryl Streep, the latter of whom was nominated for an Oscar for her performance.
Reds (1981)
Warren Beatty directed, cowrote, and starred in this historical docudrama about journalist John Reed, who reported on the Russian Revolution and assembled a community of leftist writers, thinkers, and activists—some of whom appear as themselves in interviews about their recollections of the era.
Escape From New York (1981)
In the near future of 1997, Manhattan has been converted into a maximum-security prison colony. When terrorists hijack Air Force One and crash it on the island, former soldier and currently incarcerated Snake Plissken (Kurt Russell) is freed for 24 hours to recover the president of the United States, in exchange for which he will earn himself a full pardon.
The Conversation (1974)
Surveillance expert Harry Caul (Gene Hackman) is fanatical about his own privacy, and still guilt-ridden about a recording he made that led to the deaths of three people. He has a strange feeling about his latest job—bugging a couple talking as they walk through a crowded public place—and when he hesitates about delivering the tape to his client, he starts to feel he is being surveilled himself.
