Classics Week at Pajiba

Pajiba.com is celebrating classic films of the 1970s this week. Today they featured TK’s review of Chinatown, one of the best screenplays ever written in my mind.

So far this week they’ve featured Harold and Maude, Don’t Look Now, Badlands, The Jerk, The Godfather, and The Friends of Eddie Coyle (which I had never heard of before!).

They’ve covered lots of the majors, so I’m sure a feature on Star Wars or Jaws is imminent, since those were the first summer blockbusters ever created.

If I had to do a review, it would be quite hard for me to pick just one. I tried to find a favorite on the 70s Movie Rewind’s menu, but that proved useless. I suppose that just means that the seventies were simply a prolific era for cinema.
