Description

From Aliens to Amadeus, get your fill of 1980s nostalgia with this movie bible of all things bold, bizarre, and boisterous. We've diligently compiled a list of the most influential films of the 1980s that's sure to please popcorn gobblers and highbrow chin-strokers alike. Adventurous, excessive, and experimental, '80s cinema saw moviegoers get their kicks from pictures as wide-ranging as Blade Runner, Gandhi, and Blue Velvet. Science fiction, horror, and action emerged as the defining genres of the decade, with non-human characters like E.T. winning the hearts of millions, and movies such as Ghostbusters and Back to the Future fused comedy and sci-fi to the delight of audiences everywhere. Inside this '80s encyclopedia each movie masterpiece is profiled with stills, a synopsis, and cast, crew, and technical listings. With high-concept Hollywood blockbusters, early CGI, and brilliant special effects, the 1980s saw the invention of a new reality, a movie-world so convincingly real-no matter how far-fetched-that spectators could not help but immerse themselves in it. D'Aliens - Le Retour a Amadeus, faites le plein de nostalgie des annees 1980 avec cette bible des films les plus gonfles, bizarres et survoltes. Nous avons compose avec le plus grand soin une liste des longs metrages les plus marquants des eighties qui ne manquera pas de ravir les gobeurs de pop-corn comme les intellos fines bouches. Audacieux, excessif et experimental, le cinema de ces annees aura gate les spectateurs avec des films aussi varies que Blade Runner, Gandhi et Blue Velvet. La science-fiction, l'horreur et l'action emergent comme les genres dominants de la decennie: des personnages non humains comme E.T. conquierent les coeurs par millions, quand S.O.S. Fantomes et Retour vers le futur allient comedie et science-fiction pour le plus grand bonheur de tous. Dans cette encyclopedie des annees 1980, chaque chef-d'oeuvre cinematographique est presente a travers des images du film, le synopsis, une fiche technique et la liste des acteurs et de l'equipe. Grace a leurs blockbusters hollywoodiens demesures, aux debuts de l'image de synthese et a grand renfort d'effets speciaux, les annees 1980 ont marque l'invention d'une nouvelle realite, un univers cinematographique parfois tire par les cheveux, mais toujours si convaincant que les spectateurs n'ont pu resister a l'envie d'y plonger.
