1982 in Film

In between Raiders and Return, Octopussy and The Spy Who Loved Me, and basically two really good years for film, falls 1982. Probably more due to the year that it was for my family, I don’t think I saw any of these movies in 1982. There are some good ones here anyway, even if I saw all of them years later on tape. Of course, most of the most well-liked movies from 1982 including E.T. and Annie are not among them—the good ones, that is.
