Description

[Contemporary] Many film critics have dubbed the decade of the 1970s as the Hollywood Renaissance. It was this decade that spawned or nurtured the careers of directors such as John Cassavetes, Robert Altman, Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, Hal Ashby, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Woody Allen, et. al. American Films of the 1970s will critically examine prominent films of the period, with respect to their significance within cultural and film history.
