They Don’t Make Em Like They Used To-Great after Nineteen Eighty by Tom Fineran 13 films

Some genuinely great movies created after the demise of the studio system, the seventies American renaissance, and the slow dying out of the European/Japanese auteur refulgence, with 1980 as the arbitrary cut off date and a special nod to the Honk Kong, uh, decadus mirabalus, or whatever the Latin is for “many, many miracle years”. And I should have put Raiders of the Lost Ark on, but that’ll show up on “We’re Gonna Need a Bigger Screen—movies too frigging big for a 2000 inch plasma” or else I’m an artsy fool.
