Top Musical of 1980

"Fame" (Alan Parker, MGM)

November 11, 1980

The Empire Strikes Back (1980) *****

Arguably the best episode in the "Star Wars" saga. Later retitled as "Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back".

Moscow Does Not Believe In Tears (1980) *****

'The Stunt Man (1980) *****


It's a film about reality and the illusion of reality. They clash, co-exist and eventually melt together. Under the masterful direction of Richard Rush, "The Stunt Man" emerges as a truly unique film that never stops to surprise or entertain. And Peter O'Toole gives the greatest performance of his career.
