Ordinary People, directed by Robert Redford and based on a novel by Judith Guest, is a story about a seemingly ordinary family that is slowly crumbling apart after the death of an older son. Starring Timothy Hutton, Mary Tyler Moore, Donald Sutherland and a little help from Judd Hirsch, this movie examines the themes of depression, family relationships and guilt. Despite going into watching this with some trepidation, we were pleasantly surprised by how much the film drew us in.
Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, directed by Irvin Kershner and story by George Lucas, is the famous story of Luke Skywalker and his rebel friends evading the grasp of evil Darth Vader's relentless pursuit. Starring Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fischer, Billy Dee Williams and the voice of James Earl Jones, Star Wars Episode V takes the characters into darker places than any other installment of the series. With fond nostalgia, we thought watching this would be our treat, but after repeated viewings, even this classic can get a little tired.
So, what movie did we end up siding with? The drama that we both wrote off or the classic we once loved? Tune in to find out.
