Sheila Levine Is Dead and Living in New York (1975)

“Furie, who apparently had at least skimmed the novel but failed utterly to absorb its message, gives the film a dark, dismal look totally at varience with the admittedly feeble stabs to create a comedy romance.” –

“It is a difficult movie to review -- for pete's sake, it's a difficult movie to view in some ways! -- but I'm convinced that Kubrick's inventive work is a cinematic landmark. Movies enter a new dimension with "Space Odyssey."” –

“Robert Altman's Nashville is a sprawling, massive cinematic tour de force which established the producer-director as one of the world's great moviemakers. ” –

“Coppola has delivered in one neatly tied package a near cinematic masterpiece, a work which could not be transformed, without great loss of effectiveness, to the stage, the printed word, or any other art form. ” –

Dog Day Afternoon (1975)

“[With] an extraordinary performance by Al Pacino, developing into the finest of the new actors in the anti-romantic school, it has about everything to rivet an audience to their seats during more than two hours of excitement, laughter, pathos, and drama.” –

“Chinatown has class written all over it. This superb crime melodrama, set in the Los Angeles of the 1930s, doesn't miss a trick in any department.” –

“The impressive technical work, however, fails to compensate for the strictly grade B, formula screenplay, which is another hackneyed version of the creaky plot pitting humans against monsters. ” –

The Last Picture Show (1971)

“This is a very complex movie with a magic which in many ways is a mystery. What Bogdanovich has done, I think, is to create, with utter perfection in every detail, a portrait of a town and its inhabitants. How he did it I don't know. ” –

“This is a powerful, frightening, eventually stomach-wrenching movie, all the more shattering because, as anyone who has ever strolled through the Times Square district knows, this hell on earth actually exists. ” –

Annie Hall (1977)

“It is such an adroit blend of slapstick and sadness that one weeps tears of both laughter and sorrow. All of Woody Allen's movies have been good, but this one is superlative. ” –

The Sting (1973)

“Sheer, joyful entertainment. It's a fun picture. Not a comedy, although it's filled with witty lines and laugh-provoking situations. The Sting is a perfect vehicle on which to forget 1973, a year which hasn't given us many laughs.” –

Stardust Memories (1980)

“Woody Allen's new picture, Stardust Memories, is a most curious work, often hilariously funny as only Allen can be, sometimes a parody of Allen films, and, as a whole, perhaps the least successful of any of his movies in the last five years.” –
