Steelyard Blues (1973)
Old time Charm
A film that holds up much better than its original reviews would let on. Although Fonda looks a bit disoriented at moments, there are a couple of scenes between her and Sutherland where the two simply radiate the star power that made them famous. Overall the film has a charm and warmth to it that, despite a little clumsyness at times, still makes it very much worthwhile and displays an interesting idiosyncratic type of humor and counterculture charm we haven't seen much of in recent years.
Not a must-see on a saturday night, but a precious gem for the connoisseur.
Petulia (1968)
Richard Lester's Masterpiece
Lester's "serious" film is a stylistic and cinematic masterpiece that -like much of Lester's work- has been underrated for decades. "Petulia" features the performance of a lifetime for Julie Christie and stunning work by George C. Scott and Richard Chamberlain.
This film is amazingly shot by Nicholas Roeg (!) and is a riveting piece of timeless cinema. A must-see.
