The 1970s: that magical era betwixt the swinging ’60s and the
decadent ’80s, the epoch of leisure suits and Afros, the age of
disco music and platform shoes. As war raged on in Vietnam and the
Cold War continued to escalate, Hollywood began to heat up,
recovering from its commercial crisis with box-office successes
such as Star Wars, Jaws, The Exorcist, and The Godfather. Thanks to
directors like Spielberg and Lucas, American cinema gave birth to a
new phenomenon: the blockbuster.Meanwhile, across the Atlantic,
while the Nouvelle Vague died out in France, its influence extended
to Germany, where the New German Cinema of Fassbinder, Wenders, and
Herzog had its heyday. The sexual revolution made its way to the
silver screen (cautiously in the U.S., more freely in Europe) most
notably in Bertolucci’s steamy, scandalous Last Tango in Paris.
Amid all this came a wave of nostalgic films (The
Sting,&,nbsp,The Last Picture Show) and Vietnam pictures
(Apocalypse Now, The Deer Hunter), the rise of the antihero (Robert
De Niro, Al Pacino, Dustin Hoffman), and the prestigious
short-lived genre, blaxploitation.
