LIVE POLL: Classics at 40 in 2022

Hard to believe that these movies were released 40 years, time flies like a bicycle across the moon.

Which of these movies released in 1982 is your personal favorite?

I haven't reached a peak of originality with that one but since a "midlife crisis" poll was already made, I figured it would be nice to pay tribute to the movies that are turning 40 this year, just like me today...

Indeed, there I am, after 18, 21 or 25, I guess it's only "decade" birthdays that matter or have an existential weight and now that I'm on the wrong side of 40 I realize how wrong I was to believe that this number meant 'old'... and yet, it feels a little weird like a sort of wake-up call from life, a little voice that tells you "you better hurry, Jack! time's flying and make sure you fulfill all your dreams before health catches up with you" there's something both exhilarating and scary about being 40, especially when you feel young inside and have so many dreams and projects...

Midlife crisis or midlife opportunities, time will tell, right now, he's telling me that I'm among the youngest people in their forties and I hope I'm not the only on that boat here...
