Popular culture is obsessed with the '80s—Stranger Things, anyone?—and it's not hard to see why. The '80s were a golden decade in film, boasting a near-endless list of must-watch movies you've likely seen many times before, even if you were a '90s or '00s baby: Dirty Dancing, E.T., Footloose!
That doesn't necessarily mean that every beloved film from the decade has aged well. A handful are fairly problematic when looked at through our 21st-century eyes. Many include offensive portrayals of race (or blatant racism), treat sexual harassment like a joke, and feature casually rampant homophobia, to name just some of the questionable content you’ll want to keep an eye out for.
