4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent overview of a classic film-making decade, 8 Oct 2003
By Mr. K. Gardiner (Manchester, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Publishers Taschen - sometimes described as king of the "coffee table" book producers - prove themselves once again with a further instalment in their "Movies of the..." series.
Whilst their graphically-orientated slabs of cinematic heritage may not contain academically-pitched textual dissections on film-making theory in practice, the content never fails to interest and is sufficiently well-written to actually distract one from idly using the tome as a glorified pictorial "flickbook"!
Naturally, opinion is a subjective thing; and one person's choice of the good and the great from a given era may not coincide with all. That being said, the book has enough of a wide selection to please everybody with an interest in the cinema - and in particular the sometimes genre-defining output that stemmed from the decade.
Anyone looking for a more in-depth textual (as opposed to pictorial in content) breakdown of the stories from behind-the-scenes in Hollywood film-making of the 70's and the studio shenanigans that spawned directors such as Coppola, Scorcese, Fonda, Beatty and (unfortunately..!) Lucas and Spielberg, should be directed to the similarly excellent novel "Easy Riders, Raging Bulls" by Peter Biskind.
Back to this Taschen tome though - a highly recommended purchase!
This book, as with all Taschen's output, excels itself with its standards of printing and design quality and is glorious to behold! (...and no, I don't work for the company - sadly!!)
Simply put... buy it , enjoy it for its content, and marvel at the bargain you've picked up - particularly at the Amazon discount price!
I bet you'll buy the rest of the series....!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Dangerous Book!!!!, 25 Feb 2006
A brilliant and beautiful book and a bargain.

But also very dangerous - buy this book and will end up buying more DVDs of classic 70s films from Amazon than you can afford just to see if the authors are right about how good the films and generally they are!

What no Mean Streets, Blazing Saddles, Wicker Man, or Carry On At Your Convenience though! These films are 70s classics and should be in there. And what about Mutiny On The Buses, I hear you cry, that isn't in there either!!!

Otherwise a perfect book. Highly recommended.
