Film Fan's 1981

These are the fifty films a film fan should know to know the best of 1981. The first thirty or so are in my personal order of preference, (although admittedly I need to rewatch many). Watch them and decide for yourself!
Grade for the year in film: C+. The top ten are strong but this year in film goes much less deep than many.
