Terms Of Endearment is one of my mom's favorite movies and who can remember when it first debuted in 1983 with Debra Winger and Shirley McLaine as it's stars made this delightful film a 80's classic. Who knew that a book of the same name could adapt well to a movie version and with it's classic theme song makes Terms Of Endearment the best movie of the 80's. In 1997 Terms Of Endearment was given a long anticipated sequel titled The Evening Star which is also a book by the same author as Terms Of Endearment
