Stars 80 is a French comedy film that was released in 2012. The film revolves around two die-hard fans of the 1980s era, Vincent and Antoine, who run a company that supplies doubles of faded stars throughout France. The two business partners believe that there is still a market for the 80s era in the present day, and they are determined to make the most of it.
Initially, their business venture seems to be going well. They have a lot of bookings for their imitations of 80s stars, and people seem to be enjoying their performances. However, things take a turn for the worse when they are unable to find enough doubles for all their engagements. They have over forty events booked, and no one to attend them.
At this point, Vincent and Antoine come up with a brilliant idea. Why not persuade the real stars of the 1980s to come out of retirement and make a comeback? They are convinced that this will be a surefire way to save their business from going under.
With this in mind, they set out on a mission to convince the real 80s stars to take part in their shows. They start with the smaller names first, gradually working up to the big names in the industry. However, it's not easy to get these stars on board. Some of them are reluctant to return to the stage, while others are just not interested in working with Vincent and Antoine.
Despite these obstacles, Vincent and Antoine persevere, and eventually, they are able to convince some of the biggest stars of the 80s to make a comeback. The film culminates in a massive concert, where all the stars perform together on stage, much to the delight of their fans.
Overall, Stars 80 is a light-hearted, feel-good movie that will delight fans of the 1980s era. It's a fun and nostalgic tribute to the music and culture of that time, and it will leave you humming the catchy tunes long after the credits roll.
