A decade under the influence

Hi 70’s movie fans, today we gots 9 reviews for you. Can’t wait to compare notes with you rad cinephiles. I do need to get this done quick. I’ve put it off and I need to go to work. Swigs espresso……… Let’s go!!!! First off we have James Mason in Sidney Lumet’s (Child’s play 1972)

Who would ever think that dark shit is goin on in a boys boarding school. Next we get great music and a cocaine slide show in (Super fly 1972).

Next.

Oh look y’all Ron O’Neil and Sheila Frazier are back in, oops, first we review (Detroit 9000 1973) Alex Rocco and rad Vonetta McGee Star in this gritty possibly PR for the police state film.

Ok now it’s (Super fly TNT1973) and Benson from the hit show Benson is in this sequel also Box from Logan’s run. Also also, revolution!

Moving on to (The grass is always greener over the septic tank 1978)

Carol Burnett and Erma Bombeck!

I loved diving into our dvd of this rare made for tv 70’s treat. Coach is here in this as well. Moving onto (Bear island 1979).

Based on a popular novel of that year. Here we have many great actors dealing with the pressures of ecology, explosions, snow, and nazi’s.

Ok next is the recently lost great actor James Caan, teaming again with Marsha Mason in (Chapter 2 1979) Rhoda is here too, so what can go wrong.

Almost done, and, oh look I finally scored a copy of (Dreamer 1979). Here is a bowling movie that is really got a lot of bowling in it. The cover of this movie has Jack Warden drawn as a man living out his days happily inside of a bowling pin.

Poster made me smile so much I had to buy it. Dreamer is actually the main characters name. He is fiercely dedicated to being great at bowling, and is played by the guy from the Star tours ride at EPCOT.

Finally chums today we end our reviews today with another Carol Burnett made for TV movie called (The 10th month 1979) She’s very serious in this one. Both of these tv movies are written by women and really get on film some outdated medieval treatment of women, the exposure and eradication of which were long overdue. Still long to go but after watching both of these I gotta say that the great Carol got even greater.

It’s a different day now but the coffee’s finished and so am I. Thanks for listening, please spread the word.
