The Right Stuff is my favorite movie of the Eighties!
One of my most vivid childhood movie going experiences was when I went to see TERMS OF ENDEARMENT with my mother....I remember the shock and awe of my mother dealing with the fact that Debra Winger's character died....she was in complete shock.
Spoiler alert

...Oh, you! 🤭
I've seen Terms of Endearment so many times. Love that movie.
Thank you for posting these Siskel and Ebert archives! I am continually delighted by each of your entries.
1984 was an incredible year for film.
1983 you mean
Thanks for posting this! I miss these guys. "Terms of Endearment" is probably my all-time favorite film, so I think it's one of the few times the Academy and I were totally in sync. MacLaine and Winger were both brilliant, but the edge goes to MacLaine (my favorite leading actress performance, period). Nicholson here gives his best performance - no-brainer to give it to him. The guys were too hard on Charles Durning, a great actor. "To Be or Not to Be" is a very underrated film. Durning was very funny, but Jeff Daniels should have been nominated, as should have Jerry Lewis in "The King of Comedy." 1983 was one of the great years for movies.
@@kdohertygizbur I said he was very funny, not Oscar worthy. I think Jerry Lewis and Jeff Daniels deserved nominations in his place. Cheers.
Dat intro, mindblowing campy
Its sø great seeing these shows. Keep them Coming 🙂
Great show. Thanks

You rule
you forgot to include the jump for the Where's the Beef commercial
I agree with almost all of the Academy's chosen winners this year, perhaps a record number for me. With a handful of exceptions: I'd select Ingmar Bergman for Best Director, Debra Winger for Best Actress, "Over You" for Best Song, "The Return of the Jedi" for Art Direction, and "Never Cry Wolf" for Sound Mixing. I haven't watched any of the documentaries, but back then hardly anyone did.
Worst nomination: "Betrayal" for Best Adapted Screenplay...although "The Big Chill" is also hot garbage and a rotten choice for top-tier categories.
Agree completely with Return of the Jedi for Art Direction. Jabba's Palace and the Emperor's throne room are iconic sets.
28:42 Candace Cameron from full house
This particular show doesn't have an imdb entry. Thanks for posting.
Bonus content: the Wendy’s “Where’s the beef” commercial! And Dorothy Hamill doing a hideously phony laugh in a car commercial!
I absolutely love Cross Creek and Rip Torn is wonderful. So is Mary Steenbergen and Peter Coyote . . . and the rest of the cast.
Debra Winger was brilliant in "Terms." I miss Debra Winger.
The odds Oscar votes correctly: 50/50
While I loved and miss both of these guys, I have to call Gene out a little bit. He chose Jack Nicholson despite admitting that he was a lead role, not a supporting role. However, next year he criticizes Haing S Ngor's nomination for being in the supporting and not the lead category. Although I agree with his vote in 1985 for Adolph Caesar, he was a little hypocritical there:) FWIW If I had a vote I would have voted for Rip Torn in 1984 and Adolph Caesar in 1985.
I laughed at the nougat scene
Debra Winger is the central character.
Last year people got something in the form of a gumball....Cancer! 😅
As big a deal as "The Right Stuff" was at the time, it's very seldom seen or talked about now. It's "Terms of Endearment" that's lasted.
Actually, "The Right Stuff" remains a beloved film among audiences and critics, and has higher scores with both groups. There's also ample evidence of it being as widely seen as the other (not that any of this matters necessarily, if you prefer "Terms" that's fine).
@@flaccidusminimus2170That is a Brilliant Film
Ah Clara Peller
I can't believe the best performance by an actor from that year Al Pacino in Scarface wasn't even nominated.
It's my favorite as well, but the exclusion was easy to believe at the time. "Scarface" was widely panned in 1983. Roger's 4 star review was an outlier. It would have been shocking had it received any Oscar nominations because most people hated it.
@@flaccidusminimus2170 I know a lot of hated it because of all the violence ans profanity, but I like Scarface. Now it's a cult classic.
He was awful, overacting like crazy. The made the right choice with Duvall.
At the time, that performance was seen as TERRIBLE and most reviews said the film was awful. Obviously, it's grown in stature over the years, but at the time, it was seen as a failure.
“Say Hello to my little friend.” is a classic.
audio is messed up
It may be right-speaker only but that's a feature of the source I pulled it from.
@@flaccidusminimus2170 okay. My right speaker on head phones does not work. So now I know why couldn't hear but faint echo in left. Thanks
The Big Chill was kind of a ripoff of The Return Of The Secaucus Seven by John Sayles.
I’ve always thought The Big Chill was crap. So overrated.
My parents loved it at the time, but yeah, it's not very good.
I guess I grew up with the people in “The Big Chill”-the music set the tone for this movie and the hopes and dreams we all had.
People only liked that movie because of the soundtrack.
1984 must have been a bad year...at least for movies.
I didn't like either of the lead actors in The Dresser (that theatrical acting style doesn't work on film) but I thought Tom Courtenay was particularly terrible. He literally pranced around the screen with his wrists bouncing like a camp stereotype. He should have been much more low-key and measured in contrast to Finney. This character is supposed to be a put-upon assistant but he's just as over-the-top as the pompous actor he's paired with. It was an embarrassing performance, and Gene sort of touched on that by talking about how he was just "reciting his lines."
I disagree, it was a mannered performance, yes, but "embarrassing", no
Obviously, that's your opinion but I thought both Courtney and Finney were brilliant
The Right Stuff is the best movie of the 80s
