There are few decades in film history that have been as scrutinized as the 1980s.

But to really understand the decade and its movies, it's going to take a couple some ones

who were there for it the first time around.

Drew McQueenie and Scott Weinberg are ready to review every major film of the decade

one month at a time.

The look at what worked then, what endures now, and how it felt to be there when it all went

down.

Turn back the calendar with us.

It's the 80s all over. Thank you. I'm going to The very first United Negro College Fund was established.

Bob Marley gave his final concert at the Stanley Theater in Pittsburgh.

Chevy Chase famously called Carrie Grant a homo on the tomorrow show and got sued for it.

What happens in the first second of the next cosmic year depends on what we do here and now with our intelligence and our knowledge of the cosmos.

Yet somehow, we found time for the movies that were released in September of 1980.

Hi everybody. Welcome to 80s all over. I'm Drew McQueenie as always and I'm joined by my

co-host Scott Weinberg. Hi, I'm Scott Weinberg. How did I not know that about Chevi? He called

Carrie Grant a homo. I looked it up and he played it off later as a joke where he said, no, I was going to say homeowner.

Yeah, he tried to play it down, but he meant it when he said it the first time. It was, it was kind of a big deal. And he was just, yeah, nothing but trouble, man.

So good news. No mistakes this month. We are not correcting any mistakes. So no boners. No boners.

We should have a song. Yes, we have no boners this week.

But we do have a great list. Yeah, Drew, why don't you jump right in and start us off with a memorable and somewhat controversial Woody Allen film?

This was actually the first Woody Allen film I saw theatrically, and it's called Star Dust
