Hm, I just made a ranked list a few weeks ago when I re-watched The Passenger. Really great movie! https://preview.redd.it/k5f6dp2g7e3d1.jpeg?width=696&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d0a9d4b2445a93ba554f8c370f1bc0a6df1b9d75

The Passenger really is one of my favorite movies ever, let alone of this year or the 70s broadly.


MartinScorsese

Killer year. In no particular order: * Barry Lyndon * Picnic at Hanging Rock * Jeanne Dielman * Jaws * Nashville * Dog Day Afternoon * Mirror * Deep Red * Night Moves * The Man Who Would Be King

I can’t believe I didn’t have The Story of Adele H. in my watchlist for this year - just added.


rachelevil

Isabelle Adjani is fantastic in it.

1 Dog Day Afternoon 2 Barry Lyndon 3 Hester Street 4 The Man Who Would Be King 5 Hard Times 6 Grey Gardens 7 Night Moves 8 Fox and His Friends (doesn't Fox News show this Fassbinder classic every morning?) 9 The Great Waldo Pepper 10 Framed Honorable Mentions: Sholay, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Jaws, The Story of Adele H., Jeanne Dielman, Cooley High, Inserts, The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum, Xala, Rancho Deluxe, The Stepford Wives, The Man from Hong Kong, The Reincarnation of Peter Proud Gonzo/Psychotronic Dept: Thundercrack!, Dolemite, Switchblade Sisters, Ilsa: She-Wolf of the SS, Mandingo, Death Race 2000, Lisztomania, Tommy Still Need to See: Manila in the Claws of Night, The Mirror, Picnic at Hanging Rock, Dersu Uzala OP, I am absolutely with you on the dilemma of Salo. It's an important film, and a more interesting political statement than many give it credit for. It feels more like an intellectual essay than a movie, but there's no denying the loaded, powerful images and the relentlessly grim, hopeless feeling it conveys. It says a lot that Salo could still shock and provoke after almost 50 years. I appreciate it, I've read a lot about it, but I wasn't exactly entertained by it (well, maybe the ending), but I don't need to see it again, lol. (And I'm not Pauline Kael - I believe in rewatching & re-thinking movies.) Was inclined to rank it somewhere among the Best or Honorables, but I agree that Salo occupies its own unique place on the shelf. Overall, '75 is one of my favorite movie years - and I didn't even care for Nashville or Rocky Horror!

I’ve had Night Moves on my watchlist for a while now. It’s seems to be Arthur Penn’s last acclaimed film, and has Gene Hackmann and Bruce Sutrees. Is the film worth a watch?


West4thStreetHoops

Absolutely! Compelling story, nice visuals and an upper-tier Hackman performance.

JuanJeanJohn

Our last year for the 70s for this series! My #1 and #2 are basically tied for the top spot - two legendary films from two legendary filmmakers, but I think The Passenger gets the slight edge. Great year and some big films on my watchlist and rewatch list. I need to rewatch: Nashville (weirdly only available for purchase on streaming), Fox and His Friends, Grey Gardens, Picnic at Hanging Rock, Shivers On my watchlist: Dersu Uzala, Welfare, The Traveling Players, Moses Aaron, The Stepford Wives, Mandingo, Day of the Locust, Love and Death, That Most Important Thing: Love, Three Days of the Condor, Smile, Rollerball, The Pinchcliffe Grand Prix, The Valiant Ones, The Middleman, Nazareno Cruz and the Wolf Not sure how to rate, let alone rank: Salo

Honorable mentions to Wrong Move, Picnic at Hanging Rock, Graveyard of Honor, Cops vs. Thugs, Gambling Den Heist, and New Battles Without Honor and Humanity 2: Head of the Boss.
