The Godfather (1972,  R)
The Godfather 5.0 Stars
At the moment I can't think of a movie that has so many memorable scenes as this... Marlon Brando is excellent as one of the most memorable characters ever on film. The whole cast is awesome, and Francis Ford Coppola makes one of the greatest cinematic achievements ever, so as he does 2 years later with Part II.

The Godfather, Part II (1974,  R)
The Godfather, Part II 5.0 Stars
This doesn't even has to be named as a "sequel", it's as amazing as the first one!! Another great cast, involving story and beautiful direction. Al Pacino does this time the role of a true psycho, consumed by power and duty. The Godfather movies are a classic in the history of cinema.

Allen did it again, a masterpiece that enhanced the magic and romance of New York. Witty dialogue, great character development and an A-class cast makes this movie one of his finest. This is also one of the movies that inspired me the most. A movie for everyone!

Barry Lyndon (1975,  PG)
Barry Lyndon 5.0 Stars
Stanley Kubrick is a genius! There was nothing he could not possibly do! Sci-fi, terror, comedy, and now a romantic tragedy! I could say this movie has the best cinematography I had ever seen, nearly 90% of the scenes were like watching a painting. The whole art direction, the costumes and the whole mood was amazing. The story was great, and though many events were happening, it did flow gently and not missing any detail to show the main storyline. I just can say, this is my second favorite Kubrick film ever!

Liza Minelli is fantastic as Sally Bowles. Sick, emotional decadence.

Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope 5.0 Stars
After rewatching it, I must say this is one of the greatest movies of the 70's, and of all time! One of the most influential from beginning to end, with a chilling climax that keeps you attached to your seat.

Stalker (1979,  Unrated)
Stalker 5.0 Stars
There it is, a great sci-fi film with no special effects at all. Beautifully shot, with some of the most amazing face-frames since Ingmar Bergman's Persona. I also loved the way most of the movie, the characters are seen from behind. Slow-paced, but that's what makes it a beautiful film, with amazing scenes.

Hilarious!! A perfect spoof of the classic horror tale of the Monster created by Dr. Frankenstein. With great performances, specially by the genius Gene Wilder. Possibly one of the funniest movies I have ever seen, a true classic in entertainment!

Autumn Sonata (1978,  R)
Autumn Sonata 4.5 Stars
Though it seems as a little movie with little amount of characters and settings, it is so powerful and intense that surprised me, really. The characters are so deeply developed that seem as real people with real emotions and memories. Acting is first class, one of Ingrid Bergman's greatest performances. Liv Ullmann is great as always. The script is perfect also. Another Bergman masterpiece.

Viskningar och Rop (Cries and Whispers) (1972,  R)
Viskningar och Rop (Cries and Whispers) 4.5 Stars
Also a movie that explores human dramas and those stories we would like to tear apart and never remember. The use of the red color is perfect, the red-fades are a genius work. A really great movie, another one by Bergman!

Predictable and corny, but so simple and sincere you just want to hug the movie lol. Seriously, a beautiful little film, though I didn't liked it a lot, I think the impact in 1970 was huge.

Scener ur ett äktenskap (Scenes from a Marriage) (1973,  PG)
Scener ur ett äktenskap (Scenes from a Marriage) 4.0 Stars
Pretty good film by Bergman, though not one of my favorites... Highlights the complications of marriage, love and sex.. and when they're joined together. With a great-wicked writing that maintains you entertained the 2 hours 40 min and a great performance by beautiful Liv Ullmann. A good movie to watch, but not one of my favorites...

Carrie (1976,  R)
Carrie 4.0 Stars
Strange Hitchcockian film that makes one of the most famous horror movies of the 70's. With a great performance by Sissy Spacek, but so many flaws and things I would have changed... Still very good, entertaining... but I felt really sorry for Carrie...
