95 Best '70s Movies of All Time Ranked by Looper

"As is usually the case, movies can be a mirror of what is happening at the time, and the 1970s proved to be a hugely varied decade for cinema. It was a period that saw greater diversification in Hollywood with Blaxploitation films and martial arts films increasing in popularity and becoming more mainstream. While you can find wonderful examples of every genre imaginable in the 1970s, it is perhaps best known for two key areas: gritty films with frequently bleak endings and the rise of the blockbuster. The 1970s was a challenging time in social history, and while this was reflected in the often pessimistic cinematic output, the big blockbuster, crowd-pleasing films were also there to provide the perfect escapism. Whatever film you are in the mood for, this iconic era has got you covered, so join us as we take a look at the 95 best movies of the 1970s." - looper.com
