Matthew Sheldon's Top 100 Favorite English Language Films of the 1980s - Page 2

I believe the 1980s to be one of the weakest decades for American cinema, at least when it comes to art-house independent films. And yet the more I make this list the more I begin to realize that I might be wrong. I had forgotten that so many overlooked gems were released during this decade. How many have you seen?
