Monday is about movies. And sometimes TV. I've started this ongoing series around favourite films of each year. Here we are with 1973...
Watched The Exorcist with my daughter last weekend. She’d been aching to watch it. Followed it up with Harold and Maude. Maximum dad brownie points
I would add…
Charley Varrick
The Last Detail
Sleeper
The Friends of Eddie Coyle
The Way We Were (if only for the line: “Katie - everything that happens, doesn’t happen to you personally.”)
Sleeper, the Last Detail and Way We Were nearly made my bonus-mention list
But not Charley Varrick?
Nope
Wha-? But-!
Sorry - it’s a list of 5. A personal selection. Can’t fit everything- that’s the point.
A very young Schwarzenegger in The Long Goodbye. The film has many other hidden gems: e.g., Jim Bouton (!) and the $5000 bill.
And the cat who would only eat food from a fancy can.
Yep - so good
Great summary. I was there then .
Such a wonderful year for film it’s nigh on impossible to narrow down a favourite list to just a few.
