He’s a Black private dick who’s a sex machine with all the chicks, but I found his movie not as interesting as one might think.

GANJA & HESS (1973)
An “experimental” horror movie that’s about vampires, sort of, and… other things? What things you ask? I’m not sure.
STAR WARS (1977)
Somewhere beneath everything that’s been piled on top of it is one of the greatest movies ever made.
COOLEY HIGH (1975)
In which we learn that it’s possible to be nostalgic about something yet not remember it as perfect.
BLACK CHRISTMAS (1974)
Seriously one of the better horror movies I’ve seen, surrounded by jingle bells and tinsel.
TOUKI BOUKI (1973)
A movie about a couple on the run after a crime spree. Seen that one before? Not like this.
ANNIE HALL (1977)
My favorite romantic comedy of all time, it uses new tricks in every scene to get inside the neurotic heads of its characters.
THE FRENCH CONNECTION (1971)
The car chase is justly famous, but these days its cops with a “shoot first ask questions later” attitude are extremely hard to root for.
CHINATOWN (1974)
The definitive neo-noir, a movie I love, now inextricably linked with the crimes of its director.
GATES OF HEAVEN (1978)
A documentary about pet cemeteries and also the meaning of life, maybe low-key one of my all-time favorites.
