The Concert for Bangladesh (1972) EDIT “A disappointing record of the event.” – Sydney Morning Herald Feb 5, 2026 Full Review Vanishing Point (1971) 65% EDIT “The general tenor of the film is confused and dull.” – Sydney Morning Herald Feb 5, 2026 Full Review Superman: The Movie (1978) 87% EDIT “The whole equals something more than its parts. It is a patchwork that shows the greater and lesser skills of many hands in its making yet, miraculously, it holds together.” – Sydney Morning Herald Jul 8, 2025 Full Review Lady Sings the Blues (1972) 73% EDIT “Lady is, in fact, much more a vehicle for Ross than a homage to Holiday. Yet Diana goes beyond the script and Sidney Furie's florid direction to create a believable character within the artificial screen environment. ” – Sydney Morning Herald Apr 4, 2024 Full Review The Duellists (1977) 74% EDIT “Though the film suffers from a sluggish narrative, it is well-played and visually brilliant -- beautifully composed and stunningly photographed -- and a must for film lovers.” – Sydney Morning Herald Nov 21, 2023 Full Review Convoy (1978) 58% EDIT “If one ignores the pompous script and its allegorical pretensions, Convoy is not bad entertainment. The stunt-work is excellent and the action sequences excitingly staged.” – Sydney Morning Herald Nov 21, 2023 Full Review The Last Picture Show (1971) 98% EDIT “A major work on a minor theme by a new director, it is the best film to come out of America in a good many years. ” – Sydney Morning Herald Oct 24, 2023 Full Review Girlfriends (1978) 93% EDIT “Girlfriends is a unique experience: a wry and unflinching presentation of contemporary women facing up to universal conflicts and, for better or worse, making their own decisions. ” – Sydney Morning Herald May 18, 2023 Full Review The Deer Hunter (1978) 86% EDIT “Michael Cimino's The Deer Hunter is a daring and complicated film about that confusion. It doesn't always work, in the traditional narrative sense, but its faults do not dissipate its strength.” – Sydney Morning Herald Aug 30, 2022 Full Review Avanti! (1972) 79% EDIT “It is basically a failed film because it is Wilder diluted to cater to an age which, ironically, is best equipped to appreciate the Wilder of old. ” – Sydney Morning Herald Jun 9, 2022 Full Review Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (1973) 60% EDIT “Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid is, on the whole, sadly lacking in unity. It is like a box full of handsome bits of fabric needing a firm hand to stitch them into coherence.” – Sydney Morning Herald Jun 9, 2022 Full Review The Heartbreak Kid (1972) 92% EDIT “The Heartbreak Kid is the painfully funny tale of a perennial loser the fish who outgrows his small pond only to be drowned in the big sea.” – Sydney Morning Herald Feb 23, 2022 Full Review Myra Breckinridge (1970) 24% EDIT “Whatever director Michael Sarne had in mind, it is a long way from novelist Gore Vidal's original intention.” – Sydney Morning Herald Apr 20, 2021 Full Review The French Connection (1971) 97% EDIT “No matter how hard I try to control my enthusiasm, I cannot help thinking that The French Connection is the most exciting, most stylish -- in fact, the best piece of cops-and-robbers cinema since the silents.” – Sydney Morning Herald Apr 15, 2021 Full Review The Godfather (1972) 97% EDIT “The Godfather is one of those rare films which works on just about every level. It it is entertainment: it is art. Superficially exciting with a strong narrative sense and rapid-fire yet consistent action, it is also provocative and deeply disturbing.” – Sydney Morning Herald Mar 29, 2021 Full Review
