That 80's look

I've commented here before (back in 2009 the first time!) about how I liked the very look of a lot of 1980's movies (particularly in the case of the cinematography of the films of Steven Spielberg, but in other director's films too.)  I described it as a warm, slightly glowing, look.   

According to this Youtube video I recently watched, a lot of what was appealing to me likely comes down to a particular film stock that was used widely at the time.   (It was good to note that I wasn't imagining the "look" as being distinctive compared to more modern movies.) 

Here's the video:
