The MoFo Top 100 of the 1970s: Countdown

Thanks all, for the list tips.

BTW, I vote YES to keep the decade count going on! My favorite movie decades are the 30s,40s,50s.

Are you kidding? The 40s has some of the best Cary Grant, James Stewart, Henry Fonda and Gene Tierney movies, plus some great Hitchcock movies. Abbott & Costello movies, and so much more.

I don't like James Stewart.

Let's not forget the 40s also had, Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Claudette Colbert, Barbara Stanwyck. Along with Bogart, Cagney and even Orson Welles did some acting.

His voice grates on my nerves.
Although I do love Rear Window and like Vertigo.

Well then maybe there is some hope for you after all.

Rear Window, seriously? We agree on next to nothing, after reading that you liked Hitchcock i thought we'd finally agree on something . Vertigo is amazing though .

You don't like Rear Window? Really?

It's my favorite Hitchcock, by far. It's also responsible for changing my mind about him. My first Hitchcock was The Birds and I absolutely hated it. I was really reluctant to try more of his work and then I saw Rear Window.

"The Birds" isn't a good movie to judge Hitchcock. Most of his best movies are more suspense than horror, but "The Birds" is more horror than suspense.

Either way I found it incredibly boring and the ending was infuriating.

I enjoyed The Birds, can I ask what you didn't like about it?


Edit...never mind I see you answered my question as I was typing.

I don't. I liked it the first time i watched it, when i was a kid with my mum whose favourite director is Hitchcock. After rewatching it a year or two ago it just really irrated me i honestly can't describe it any other way, and i like James Stewart and his cheesegrater voice .

Now it's time for me to go into hiding with my boy Lucas who also dislikes it .

Probably more than me.

how can anybody not like rear window? even people who don't like Hitchcock still like it.

Never seen all of MASH or Mean Streets only snippets here and here. MASH looked meandering and Mean Streets haven't seen enough of.

Will Annie Hall make the Top Ten?

If any Woody Allen movie makes the top 20 i'll be surprised, more than likely Annie Hall will be the highest; hopefully Manhattan shocks everyone or just me though.

Isn't Annie Hall easily one of the best films of the 70s though?

Who doesn't like Hitchcock and still likes Rear Window?
