Episode Synopsis

Cue the uniform, the motorcycle, and one of the most romantic finales in movie history. This week, the Reel Sisters rewind

An Officer and a Gentleman - the 1982 drama that made audiences swoon, sob, and stand up cheering.
Sisters Amanda Stephens and Missy Washam revisit Richard Gere's unforgettable turn as Zack Mayo, a Navy aviation candidate trying to rise above his rough past, and Debra Winger as Paula, the small-town factory worker who captures his heart. From the grueling training sequences to that iconic lift-her-off-her-feet ending, they break down the film's mix of grit, growth, and gut-wrenching emotion that made it an instant 80s classic.
So grab your tissue box, crank up 'Up Where We Belong', and join the Reel Sisters for a rewind that proves love, discipline, and determination never go out of style.
