Favorite filmmaker from 70's

Topic started by kid-glove on Fri Aug 14 2:29:34 2009. [Full View]

Should have made more than one (great) film in the decade. Similarly, I've seen only a single great film of Scorsese fomr the decade, Taxi Driver, and similarly, Forman's One flew over.., Truffaut's The wild child and Malle's 'Murmur of heart', Melville's The red circle, Fellini's Amarcord, and "Farewell my lovely" - I don't recollect the filmmaker. IIRC, I haven't seen a 70's film from Godard. So, A strictly personal list:
Kubrick - ACO, and Barry Lyndon
Coppola - Appocalypse Now, The Godfather and Conversation
Bertolucci - Conformist, Last Tango in Paris and Novecento(1900)
Herzog - Aguirre, The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser, Stroszek, Nosferatu (numerous other shorts, and documentaries)
Terrence Malick - Badlands and Days of Heaven
Antonioni - The Passenger, Zabriskie Point
Bunuel - The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie, Obscure object of Desire, The Phantom of Liberty
Cassavetes - A Woman Under the Influence , Killing of Chinese Bookie, Opening Night
Polanski - Tenant, Chinatown
Peckinpah - Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia, The Getaway, and Straw Dogs (wanting to see 'Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid ')
Altman - Long Goodbye, MASH, Nashville, 3 Women

I didn't include Tarkovsky and Woody Allen, to give others a fair deal. Yes Sir

Yes Sir
