Rewinding the '80s is a series of lists in which I indulge in a massive nostalgia trip by revisiting my favorite era in pop culture.  I am watching and/or re-watching numerous titles from that golden, glorious decade and listing them all here for posterity. This includes feature films, made-for-TV movies and miniseries, individual TV episodes, and short films, all listed in chronological order by their original release/air dates. Many of these titles were seen during their original releases.  Some were watched in later years.  Others still, I am viewing for the first time.

In May of 1980, I was 7 years old and in second grade.   That month also saw the release of the first of the two movies that would define my childhood. You'll know it when you see it.
