    Almost all the films with John Hughes working on them seemed to evoke the 1980s & early 1990s.

    Christmas Day I was round at a friend's house and he put on a gay cult classic from 1978 called "Nighthawks" it's based around the life of a comprehensive school teacher and his ventures into the late 70's London gay Scene. I was amazed at how drab, dirty and run down London seemed to be during that era. I think we all forget how bad things were for most people in the 1970's. Then again I suppose we didn't know any better and what you've never had you don't miss. Was surprising seeing vistas of London Streets with no cyclists! No coffee-shop chains.
