November 10 1980 

STAR 80 opens in NY. Written and directed by Bob Fosse. Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning Village Voice article  Death of a Playmate by Teresa Carpenter. Mariel Hemingway & Eric Roberts are both exceptional in dark, voyeuristic bio centering on the brutal 1980 murder of young Playboy model/rising starlet Dorothy Stratten by her narcissistic, possessive husband.
