Silver Screen Sisters Mon, 01 Jun 2026 14:43:50 -0400 https://silverscreensisters.buzzsprout.com en-us © 2026 Silver Screen Sisters no 8d6c88b2-e1fc-5844-afe1-48ff1b0f98cc An 80s Movies Review Podcast episodic true Once upon a time, Sophie asked Billie, “Wanna start a podcast about 80s movies?”


Billie said, “Uh, no. I hate 80s movies.”


And the Silver Screen Sisters Podcast was born.


In truth, we just needed an education, as neither of us had watched many 80s movies. Who’s John Hughes? What are The Outsiders?


These are questions we ask. Because we have no clue.


And don’t even begin to ask us how to pronounce names.


We invite you to join us as we discover what makes the 80s such an iconic time for cinema and why people come back to them again and again.

Billie had no idea that quote came from a movie, let alone a movie about building a baseball field for ghosts. Starring Kevin Costner, James Earl Jones, Ray Liotta, and Amy Madigan, this fantastical movie is still a family favorite today.

*** This episode is a bit longer than usual because we spend a little time reflecting on our first 50 episodes and what surprised us the most on our journey. Enjoy!

Batman, directed by Tim Burton, was released in 1989 and marks the beginning of the Batmans on the silver screen. (Though the TV show in the 60s is the first appearance on film!) It's iconic score, by Danny Elfman, and soundtrack, by Prince, as well as performances by Michael Keaton and our main man Jack Nicholson catipulted this film into infamy. Even we've seen it.

But just because we've seen it before doesn't mean there wasn't a lot more to learn about this film. We have some surprising trivia in this episode and, of course, it's BATMAN. Come join us and tell us about your favorite Batman!

This wasn't a movie that Sophie picked for us to watch. Just to clarify. :)

Directed by Alan J. Pakula, it stars Meryl Streep, Kevin Kline, and Peter MacNicol and could rival even Shakespeare's most tragic of plays. The story centers around the story of a Holocaust survivor, a Polish Catholic woman, and her Jewish American boyfriend. A young writer named Stingo bears witness to their spiral into darkness, even going so far as calling them friends.

Needless to say, Sophie and I had a lot to talk about, especially the choices everybody made.

***Trigger warning: This episode includes discussed around mental illness, suicide, and the Holocaust. If you need someone to talk to, please reach out and call the national hotline 988. We're happy you're here.

For real, Sophie has never watched "Top Gun"... until now.

At first glance, the movie looks like any other bro movie, but we dig into the heart of the movie and why it took the world by storm back in 1986.

Don't worry. We'll be doing "Top Gun: Maverick" soon!

This. This is the result.

The Outsiders, starring C. Thomas Howell, Matt Dillon, Ralph Macchio, Patrick Swayze, Rob Lowe, Emilio Estevez, and Tom Cruise, was directed by Francis Ford Coppola (which we pronounced correctly this time) and based on a book by S.E. Hinton. It tells the story of conflict among the youth of rural Oklahoma due to the socio-economic divide of the town, escalating to the point of death. It's a poignant coming-of-age story we enjoyed digging our teeth into.

Nelson star in this amazingly creative flick written by Steven Spielberg, Michael Grais, and Mark Victor, and directed by Tobe Hooper.
