While by no means the Golden Age of Hollywood, the 1980s offered their own fair share of contemporary classics that are being celebrated today as we move farther away from the years of their release.
John Malahy’s Rewinding the ’80s: Cinema Under the Influence of Music Videos, Action Stars, and a Cold War provides readers with profiles of many films from the 1980s and stories of their productions. In addition, Malahy examines how Hollywood studios reflected a new period of cultural change during that period. From technological change to emergent cultural movements, many film studios and filmmakers were inspired by the new facets of Hollywood throughout the decade.
