1980s

The films I watched were Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Teen Wolf and Weird Science. All of these films had the same similarities such as:
  • Set in American High School.
  • Free and Young.
  • Obvious Social Cliques (Nerds, Popular Kids)
  • The 'Girl' (In each one of these films, there is a girl who the main character likes and makes her a important character to the film).
  • Careless living.
  • Having a good time.







Music


The Human League - Fascination

  • Classic 80s sounds.
  • Men wearing make-up.
  • Women wearing strong make-up.
  • Wearing All Black.
  • No choreography, just dancing along with the music. 




Gary Numan - Cars

  • 80s retro sound.
  • A new age of music.
  • Male singer wearing makeup.
  • Use of editing effects.
  • Lots of close-ups of the face.
  • No choreography, just dancing to the music.
  • Quite artistic and creative, through camera work and set design. 


A Flock of Seagulls
  • Singer wearing makeup.
  • Artistic Ideas.
  • Close ups.
  • Women wearing a lot of eyeshadow.
