You know, I am completely a child of the 80’s, through and through…no doubt about it. Born in ‘75, it just came with the territory. My wife & I just recently got on this kick where we’re going back and watching all of the famous 80’s movies…talk about a riot. Some of the movies that were the BOMB back then are completely ridiculous now…and some of the movies that were originally intended to be intense dramas are now nothing short of comedy.
Take “The Breakfast Club” for instance. I noticed a trend with this and other movies, such as Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, that all of the teenage kids in the 80’s were angry at their parents, for one reason or another. How about that? What a revelation. Teen angst was at an all-time high back then. Just think of some of the ticked-off youth of yesteryear…what was the main reason for their anger? Yep…their parents.
Just a thought.
