TPSG Top 10 Movies of 1985

Continuing with my look at the best movies of years gone by.

Top 10 Movies of 1985:
  1. Pale Rider - Clint Eastwood, Michael Moriarty
  2. Back to the Future - Michael J Fox, Lea Thompson
  3. The Falcon and the Snowman - Sean Penn, Timothy Hutton
  4. The Color Purple - Oprah Winfrey, Whoopi Goldberg
  5. The Breakfast Club - Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald
  6. Mask - Cher, Eric Stoltz
  7. Fletch - Chevy Chase, Joe Don Baker
  8. Prizzi's Honor - Jack Nicholson, Kathleen Turner
  9. Purple Rose of Cairo - Mia Farrow, Jeff Daniels
  10. Witness - Harrison Ford, Kelly McGillis
"Pale Rider" is one of my favorite Western movies ever.  "Back to the Future" didn't win many awards but it was a ton of fun to watch.  "The Falcon and the Snowman" is one of Sean Penn's early works, it was obvious that good things were to come for him.  "The Color Purple" is Oprah Winfrey's finest performance.  "The Breakfast Club" may be John Hughes best film, it's classic 80's.  Eric Stoltz performance as Rocky Dennis in "Mask" is one for the ages, Cher is very good too.  Chevy Chase made some very funny movies in the 80's, "Fletch" is one amongst them!   Jack Nicholson & Kathleen Turner are great in "Prizzi's Honor".  "The Purple Rose of Cairo" is one of Woody Allen's better films, that's saying something.  "Witness" was an interesting and thrilling glimpse into the world of the Amish.
