The Front Row Network

Front Row Classics welcome author John Malahy to take a trip back to the 1980s. John recently authored "Rewinding the 80s: Cinema Under the Influence of Music Videos, Action Stars and a Cold War". Brandon and John discuss the decade in which cinema was first heavily influenced by pop culture. Yet, the decade remains unsung in terms of its many cinematic achievements.

"Rewinding the 80s: Cinema Under the Influence of Music Videos, Action Stars and a Cold War" is available from Turner Classic Movies and Running Press wherever books are sold.

John Malahy is a film lover, a veteran of Turner Classic Movies, and a product of the 1980s. He is the author of Summer Movies: 30 Sun-Drenched Classics and the editor of Sidney Poitier: The Great Speeches of an Icon Who Moved Us Forward.
