Life Moves Pretty Fast: The Lessons We Learned From Eighties Movies by Hadley Freeman
4.0
3.75 stars, but I'll round up to 4
Light, enjoyable, and somewhat insightful. The author obviously has her own favorites and biases, but in general I agreed with many of the observations of the movies she chose to highlight. It was interesting to get a bit of insight into how the film industry as a whole has changed in recent decades, and actually makes perfect sense.
Overall, a fun read for anyone who grew up watching (and still finds themselves re-watching and quoting) movies from the 80's.
