One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) Judith Crist It is a finely made film, perhaps the most honest to date to deal with the inmates of a mental hospital... And it may well be the vehicle to win Jack Nicholson his long-deserved Oscar. But its subsurface rewards are minimal.

Barry Lyndon (1975) Judith Crist A consummate work of art, a "literary" period piece brought to cinema terms of remarkable intelligence and overwhelming beauty.

The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars and Motor Kings (1976) Judith Crist Like The Bad News Bears, this is more than a baseball comedy, focusing on personality and friendship while revealing the fascinating past of a national pastime.

Dog Day Afternoon (1975) Judith Crist It is in the streets and small shops and neighborhoods that the major madnesses of our time take place -- and Lumet has captured them with throbbing truth.

Raging Bull (1980) Judith Crist The enigma of La Motta remains and we are unenlightened... There is small point to the film beyond providing a showcase for the great gifts of De Niro and Scorsese's special talents. Are these enough?

Taxi Driver (1976) Judith Crist Martin Scorsese has come home, back to the rotten part of the Big Apple he knows so well, with Taxi Driver, a completely fascinating and ultimately unsatisfying film -- par for the Scorsese course.

Buffalo Bill and the Indians (1976) Judith Crist It is fitting also that Altman... should cast his creative eye on history with the clarity, humor, and affectionate cynicism that have been the hallmarks of his work.

Moses (1976) Judith Crist Lancaster carries the dramatic burden with patriarchal authority, but even he cannot carry it beyond the Sunday-school level.

All the President's Men (1976) Judith Crist An honorable work, by and about honorable men.

Family Plot (1976) Judith Crist It is a grand entertainment in the grand tradition, the dialogue as sprightly as the pace, the giggles as frequent as the gasps, the scene as realistic as the action, the people as credible as the plot.

Face to Face (1975) Judith Crist Bergman’s Face to Face is one of his finest films, the most humanistic and thereby the most accessible, perhaps because it is the most personal.
