This sweet summer child -- and her kind of great party dress -- is a mere 26 years old here. She kinda looks the exact same now?

Speaking of sweet summer children -- Isabella here is nearly 30 but looks about 15. PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME how I never knew they were married. (From 79 to 82.)

Shout-out to that woman's impeccable manicure, which lives on forever.

This seems so on-brand for Liza and her very very long cigarette.
Dennis Christopher, Amy Irving

I'm picking up everything Amy is putting down here, lookswise. (Dennis Christopher was riding high on Chariots of Fire, which had just come out this year.)
Swoosie Kurtz and Richard Thomas

They were NOT dating -- he and his wife had just had triples at this point -- but they'd been in a play together the year prior and they're still very good friends, per the Internet. Swoosie could maybe still wear this dress.
Cheech Marin and Geraldo Rivera

Lotta facial hair happening in this elevator.

Treat Williams was SO CUTE. (So was Dana Delaney, although her dress has aged VERY poorly.)
Robert De Niro

LOTS of mustaches on men in 1981. (Including, I wager, the fathers of many people reading this post.)
