On the subject of 1979:
Kramer vs. Kramer
By Jeff Shannon
Winner of five Academy Awards including Best Picture, Actor, and Screenplay, Kramer vs. Kramer ( Meryl Streep, Dustin Hoffman) remains as powerfully moving today as it was when released in 1979 The #1 movie of 1979 was Superman starring the Late Christopher Reeves. Rocky II with Sylvester Stallone.
Notable movies of that year. 10 with Dudley Moore & Bo Derek, Mad Max with Mel Gibson, Apocalypse Now (Francis Ford Coppolla, actors Marlon Brando, Martin Sheen, Robert Duvall,and Dennis Hopper "an all star cast"), 1941 with John Belushi, and Dan Akroyd ( a Spielberg Film) and Rod Steiger in an Amityville Horror.
Long Island scary houses, Vietnam ridiculousness, Australian full throttle (AC/DC), WWII bizarre comedy, fun filled vacations for the perfect girl(10), the good fight, and family discussions. Sounds familiar.
1977 Star Wars & King Kong 2005 Star Wars & King Kong. The circle is closed I guess. also Rocky I and Smokey & the Bandit ( an oxymoron in concepts ).
The subject of 1979 to be continued.... stay tuned. Sounds like that 70's show.
