The TVI Take
1983 Best Picture nominee. College friends reunite after a friend's suicide and confront how their 1960s idealism has curdled into 1980s compromise.
Moderate cognitive demands from the ensemble dynamics. Some educational value from the generational commentary on the post-60s American disillusionment. The Motown soundtrack is perfect.
