Okay I was inspired by GMKU's 1960's thread...
I think that the 70's is easily the best decade in the history of celluloid... when it was still possible to combine boundary pushing innovation (ie interesting ideas) with mainstream cinema. Discuss, share etc... Here are some of my favourites: Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom The Third Generation Nashville The Passenger The King of Marvin Gardens The American Friend Performance A Clockwork Orange Amacord Two-Lane Blacktop Mean Streets Heat The Warriors Play Misty For Me Stroszek Multiple Maniacs The Texas Chainsaw Massacre The Exorcist Dawn Of The Dead Interiors A Woman Under The Influence ![]() Once again if a gun was put to my head I would say that Mean Streets is my absolute favourite... but it is so, so difficult for me to make a final decision. ![]()

a lot of movies you mentioned, some superobscure horror movies you didn't mention, whatever. there's just too many. the 70's-80's were the best times for the movies i enjoy.
my all time favorite movies are taxi driver and el topo. |

Too many and a big number is on your list already. One of my absolute favourite movies is ''Assault On Precinct 13'' that came out in 1976. The soundtrack to that is also ace.

Sorry guys... my enthusiasm for this subject led me to list too many films, which isn't much fun for you... so i have heavily edited my original list!

oh hm i'd love to answer this but i need breakfast and i don't plant to stick around here today--
but i have a question-- are we going to count movies from the 70s regardless of the times they are set? if so, i'll throw a few tarkovki: solaris kubrick: a clockwork orange / barry lyndon coppola: godfather 1 & 2 / apocalypse now polanski: chinatown / tess woody allen: sleeper / annie hall / manhattan john waters: pink flamingos / female trouble / desperate living a woman under the influence / (and i want to see the killing of a chinee bookie) milos forman: one flew over the cuckoo's nest / hair i havent's seen any 70s bergman, i've been working on his 40s stuff-- but cries & whispers & scenes from a marriage are asking to be seen michael cimino: the deer hunter (one of the very best, he went to shit after) mike hodges: get carter peckinpah: pat garret & billy the kid, straw dogs, bring me the head of alfredo garcia robert aldrich: ulzana's raid, emperor of the north pole ok i give up, im too hungry |
