Diner (soundtrack)

Welcome to another edition of Soundtrack Sunday. And, surprise surprise, I found another film tie-in from 1982 that I completely forgot to cover last year for its thirtieth anniversary. So, let’s make up for that.

Released on March 5th of 1982, Diner was the directing debut of screenwriter Barry Levinson. The comedy-drama, set in Baltimore in December of 1959, was the story of a group of male friends who get back together for the wedding of one of the guys. The cast featured a whole slew of young actors on the verge of career breakthrough - Steve Guttenberg, Daniel Stern, Mickey Rourke, Kevin Bacon, Tim Daly, Paul Reiser and Ellen Barkin.
