Bogie56 Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 From 1982 I have not seen: Interrogation Lonely Hearts Melanie The Missionary Moonlighting One from the Heart Personal Best Privates On Parade The Return of Martin Guerre Veronika Voss Lonely Hearts by Paul Cox is certainly worth a look for Wendy Hughes (1952-2014) alone. This is a Mike Leigh-type film that is character driven. Hughes as we know was regarded as one of Australia's greatest actresses. In Moonlighting, Jeremy Irons plays the foreman of an illegal crew of Polish workers who have been hired to gut and renovate a flat in London. irons is an absolute rotter who takes advantage and double deals his own men who live, sleep and work in the flat. It is played very straight which only adds to the very dark humour. Privates on Parade is a very funny look at a troupe of military entertainers stationed in Malaysia. Most of these men at arms are gay. Denis Quilley (1927-2003) plays the leader. John Cleese has a smart part. I saw a revival of the stage play in 2012 that featured Simon Russell Beale. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawrenceA Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Here are the films from 1982 that were mentioned that I have not seen as yet. Airplane II The Sequel with William Shatner Annie with Carol Burnett, Tim Curry and Aileen Quinn Best Friends with Goldie Hawn Grease 2 with Michelle Pfeiffer If You Could See What I Hear with R.H. Thompson Jinxed! with Bette Midler Kiss Me Goodbye with Sally Field La Nuit de Varennes/That Night In Varennes with Hanna Schygulla, Marcello Mastroianni, Jean-Louis Barrault and Laura Betti Split Image with James Woods Tenebre with Anthony Franciosca That Championship Season with Bruce Dern I've seen these. It's been 30 years since I saw Best Friends or Jinxed! so I don't recall much. Airplane 2 and Grease 2 are fairly self explanatory. I've discussed Tenebrae already, and I wrote a review of That Championship Season in the "I Just Watched" thread last year (I wasn't a fan). I also wrote a review more recently for That Night in Varennes, which I did like, and would recommend. Enough has been said about Annie, as well. Kiss Me Goodbye is the American remake of the Brazilian hit Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands. Sally Field stars as a widow who is about to remarry, this time to Jeff Bridges, when the ghost of her first husband (James Caan) shows up to throw a monkeywrench into the works. Paul Dooley and Claire Trevor are also in it. Caan quit making movies for years after this. I thought it was mildly pleasant and inoffensive. If You Could See What I Hear is a biopic on blind musician Tom Sullivan. Sullivan himself was making frequent appearances on TV during this time period, so he was a fairly well-known figure. Marc Singer stars, taking a break from his usual genre fare, such as The Beastmaster released this same year and for which he is most remembered. Split Image stars Michael O'Keefe as a young man who gets "brainwashed" into a cult led by Peter Fonda. The kid's parents, played by Brian Dennehy and Elizabeth Ashley, hire James Woods to "de-program" their son. Woods is volatile and intense, as usual. This movie is largely forgotten now, although it's worth a look. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had seen the WONDERFUL original musical, with Denis Quilley and Nigel Hawthorne. The movie is certainly not as good -- they not only changed some plot details for the worse, but John Cleese is awful in the Hawthorne role -- he ruins the film for me. But Quilley is brilliant, on stage and screen. I wanted to see Simon, whom I've worked with, in the revival, but the timing was bad.

Bogie56 Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 Best Supporting Actor of 1982 2. RAUL JULIA (Kalibanos), Tempest I would like to pay a small tribute to the late Raul Julia (1940-1994) a truly wonderful actor who was my number two choice for supporting actor of 1982 with his role as Kalibanos in Paul Mazursky's Tempest. Julia is a comic delight as the wild man living in a cave on the Greek island that John Cassevetes has decided to retreat to with his young daughter (Molly Ringwald) and new girlfriend (Susan Sarandon). Sure Julia is from San Juan playing a Greek peasant but it works. It is my favourite Julia performance. Tempest was flop when it came out but I would say it is worth catching. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogie56 Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Leading vs. Supporting Categories in 1983 … IMO Shirley MacLaine, Debra Winger and Jeff Daniels are all leads in Terms of Endearment. Albert Finney and Tom Courtenay are both leads in The Dresser. Wojciech Pszoniak and Gerard Depardieu are both leads in Danton. Ed Harris, Dennis Quaid and Scott Glenn are all leads in The Right Stuff. Sam Shepard is supporting. Tess Harper is the leading actress in Tender Mercies. My choice for impersonation of a Juvenile is… RALPH MACCHIO (Johnny Cade), The Outsiders* I was going to pick Ralph Macchio for the Juvenile acting award but only just discovered that he was already 22.

Swithin Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I'm afraid I could not work up any enthusiasm to make a list of 1983 favorites. I liked Heat and Dust; Zelig; Educating Rita; and a few others; and I thought Peter Weller gave an excellent performance in Of Unknown Origin; but those films do not a list make. In the 1979 lists, I neglected to mention John Sayles' The Return of the Secaucus Seven, a film I find vastly superior to 1983's slick The Big Chill. I'm not a fan of writer/director James L. Brooks. Terms of Endearment is the sort of modern Hollywood film (I would call it American Neo-Realism) that I do not like. I think it's fitting that Brooks spent most of his career in television. I have liked a few of his shows -- Rhoda, in particular; but as a whole I find no magic in his work. 1984 looks like a much better year. Mia Farrow and Woody Allen in Zelig. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have him among my nominees for a movie over 25 years later than this early performance.

I have liked a few of his shows -- Rhoda, in particular; but as a whole I find no magic in his work. It has taken me a while, but I have come to terms with Terms. I really like Shirley MacLaine in so much of her work, but really struggle with her here. The hospital scenes with Debra Winger are great and that earned her the Oscar. Yet she is so nasty to her son-in-law played by Jeff Daniels. I guess had he been abusive to Debra, I would understand. Yet he is very soft and martyr-ish. Yes, he is also supposedly unfaithful, yet she doesn't exactly say "no" to John Lithgow either. Maybe that was the point? Jeff's Flap was too weak to be a daddy to the children since he couldn't stand up to feisty women like Jack Nicholson? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I first saw Peter Capaldi at the Young Vic, in 1983, playing John Lennon in a play by Willy Russell: John, Paul, George, Ringo... and Bert. My favorite film role of Capaldi's comes five years after 1983. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingrat Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I seem to agree with both sides about Terms of Endearment. The change of tone doesn't quite work, but on the other hand, this is just how it happens when someone close to you says, out of the blue, "I have cancer." I like both Debra and Shirley, especially Debra, in Terms, but Genevieve Bujold in Choose Me is an equally strong contender. She'll be even more outstanding in Trouble in Mind. Choose Me is probably my favorite film from this year, but the one I've seen the most times is The Big Chill. I usually like "group of friends" movies, including both The Return of the Secaucus Seven and The Big Chill. Is that comparable to liking both snails and oysters? I'm not especially fond of the music in The Big Chill, but otherwise no complaints.

kingrat Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Yikes, I see that Choose Me is a 1984 film. Sorry for the confusion. Lawrence, Alan Rudolph has directed some stinkers. I'm very fond of Welcome to L.A. (which a lot of people are not) and Choose Me, and if Trouble in Mind doesn't completely work, it has a super performance by Genevieve Bujold. These three films, considered together, absolutely show the work of an auteur, but, of course, there are plenty of authors one doesn't enjoy. Some of Rudolph's projects were made to get by until he could get financing for the movies he really wanted to make. He did not excel under these conditions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingrat Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Before we leave 1983, I'd like to agree with Bogie for his high praise for Educating Rita, which was his favorite film for this year. The play was written by Willy Russell for Julie Walters, and apparently Rita was based on her. Julie Walters is terrific in the movie and even could be said to overshadow Michael Caine, which is not exactly easy to do. Caine is perhaps not the top choice to play a college professor, although he's a fine actor with exceptional screen presence. Rita is a working class gal, a hairdresser by profession, who takes some college literature courses. She has plenty of brains but no knowledge of the academic world, so that, for instance, it seems natural to her to compare Macbeth to Harold Robbins' Where Love Has Gone. Rita's naivete leads to some fine comic moments, but as the movie progresses, we realize that it isn't really a comedy. Once Rita is educated, she doesn't fit into the world she grew up in. The world she's smart enough to join means an estrangement from the people in her daily life. Educating Rita sticks in the memory. Tender Mercies is on my honor roll of intelligent, believable films about the real South. The director, Bruce Beresford, is Australian, just as Michael Apted, director of another film on that list, the admirable Coal Miner's Daughter, is British. Robert Duvall, Tess Harper, and Betty Buckley all give first-rate performances in Tender Mercies. Sometimes non-Southerners get the impression that the character played by Tess Harper is mentally challenged. No, she isn't. She's sweet, she has a thick Southern accent, she's deeply religious, and she has all of her faculties. It's unfortunate that Tess Harper and Betty Buckley didn't have more big movie roles; Tess Harper did have a nice supporting role in Crimes of the Heart. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
