'All the Right Moves' Is Basically a Gender-Swapped 'Flashdance'
The early 1980s were a real golden gateway for coming-of-age movies, sharing the yearning and struggle of working-class youth. In 1983, two films from April and October were a solid part of this cinematic trend. Flashdance,directed by Adrian Lyne, starring Jennifer Beals, and All the Right Moves, directed by Michael Chapman, starring Tom Cruise, might seem like contrasting premises on the surface — one following a female welder-turned-dancer, the other tracking a high school basketball star, but dig only a little deeper, you'll find they're cinematic cousins.
