Anyway, if anyone would ask which films from 1983 are best remembered, Tootsie, My Favorite Year, E.T., The Verdict, Sophie's Choice, Officer and a Gentleman, Blade Runner, Diner, Das Boot and World According to Garp would ALL be appreciated more than the torpid Gandhi.

Because despite a desire to be considered a collection of intellects and historians, we remain a nation of romantics who would rather tear with emotion for a story that touches our hearts than stuff our heads with sterile facts about political struggle in far away lands.
As long as the good guy triumphs or gets the girl in the end we will always fill the theatre. At least until Itunes shows new release movies like they do everything else......
