Funny Lady (1975) 51% “"Funny Lady" is anachronistically artificial, sloppily sentimental and desultorily directed.” – Sacramento Bee Apr 24, 2025 Full Review Rancho Deluxe (1975) 62% “Superb acting, easy pacing, and graceful balance between the understated and overstated keep Frank Perry's new comedy, "Rancho Deluxe" rocking along merrily, just barely preventing it from drowning in its essential cuteness.” – Sacramento Bee Mar 27, 2025 Full Review Nashville (1975) 89% “What is wrong with the film Altman and Tewkesbury made is that it seems to try all of the above approaches without taking any one of them far enough to come up with a definitive statement. ” – Sacramento Bee Feb 27, 2025 Full Review Barry Lyndon (1975) 78% “After three hours, I had the same feeling I had at the end of 2001: A Space Odyssey -- puzzled, a little frustrated, hardly at all involved or instructed, but somehow impressed by the extremes to which the filmmaker's exploration has carried him.” – Sacramento Bee Feb 25, 2025 Full Review Shampoo (1975) 75% “George's behavior seems contrived rather than growing out of a clear concept of human nature.” – Sacramento Bee Feb 10, 2025 Full Review The Conversation (1974) 93% “Where the movie fails is that it does not stick to the kind of readily believed internal consistency that makes Hitchcock's best films so powerful... [But] performances and cinematic values make it very worthwhile seeing. ” – Sacramento Bee Sep 24, 2024 Full Review Dog Day Afternoon (1975) 96% “There are some big flaws in "Dog Day Afternoon" but they do not prevent it from being one of the best pictures this year and probably strong Oscar material in several categories.” – Sacramento Bee Apr 6, 2024 Full Review Chinatown (1974) 98% “The miracle of the picture is that the tale itself, composed of so many familiar elements -- and I mean 30-years-of-moviegoing familiar -- is grippingly convincing throughout. It is like going to your first movies all over again.” – Sacramento Bee Mar 8, 2024 Full Review Little Big Man (1970) 91% “True enough, the film blares its message pretty loud. But it is also funny and never sentimental. Hoffman is at his very best and the others, especially Chief Dan George, are also very fine. ” – Sacramento Bee Nov 10, 2023 Full Review Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974) 92% “If the part (and the film as a whole) lacks a completely satisfying shape, there is no question that Burstyn takes it just as far as it can go. ” – Sacramento Bee Oct 12, 2023 Full Review Taxi Driver (1976) 89% “As psychological theorists, [Martin Scorsese and Paul Schrader] are not altogether convincing, but as observers and filmmakers they are dynamite. ” – Sacramento Bee Oct 6, 2023 Full Review Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (1973) 59% “Perhaps Peckinpah sees himself as Billy the Kid, laughing as he escapes all restraints, cowing the populace into helping him make his getaway.” – Sacramento Bee Jun 9, 2022 Full Review Midnight Cowboy (1969) 89% “[Dustin Hoffman] has played Ratso Rizzo too well, too strongly. His caricature casts a shadow over Voight, who is perfect. The film is so artful that this slight deviation from taste stands out far more strongly than it would in a lesser product.” – Sacramento Bee Mar 10, 2022 Full Review The Chairman (1969) “Pretty good, but a half hour after you have seen it you feel hungry for more adventure.” – Sacramento Bee Mar 10, 2022 Full Review One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) 93% “The problem with stripping away the dramatics is, as I see it, that Forman was not able to replace them with the ingredients of a more truly thoughtful film. ” – Sacramento Bee Mar 8, 2022 Full Review Oliver! (1968) 91% “For director Carol Reed, who has not had a real hit for awhile, it is a great comeback. For Onna White, who did the choreography and staged the musical sequences, and for designer John Box, it is a triumph.” – Sacramento Bee Mar 3, 2022 Full Review
