Our Top 10 Films from the 1970s
from A24 On The Rocks · host A24 On The Rocks
The A24 rocks crew transports you to another era of the silver screen once again, this time they share their top ten 1970s films and invite Brian De Palma expert Ray Neeman on to share his top 10 as well. It was the time of Watergate, Vietnam, and psychedelic counter-culture for America in the 1970s: but how did that translate to film and pop culture? Many say the 70s was the "Golden Era of Film," a time when studios took more risks and directors such as Speilberg, Scorcese, Kubrick, and Coppola turned themselves into household names. It was also the decade where horror films became more horrific (in a good way), and the original Star Wars premiered and changed the world. Sit back, have a pinacolada, and listen in the rain.
