1972 Recap and Favorites List

I have now viewed 40 films that were released in 1972.  A list can be found here.  I saw a lot of good to great movies and am satisfied to move on to the riches of 1973. From the 1001 Movies List, I did not revisit Deliverance or Last Tango in Paris, both of which I have seen at least once before.   My Favorites List is in no particular order,  though the first three are the films that got a 10/10 from me.  Nine out of ten are from the List, which may be a first.

Cabaret – directed by Bob Fosse

The Godfather – directed by Francis Ford Coppola

Cries and Whispers – directed by Ingmar Bergman

The Mattei Affair – directed by Francesco Rosi

Fat City – directed by John Huston

The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant – directed by Ranier Werner Fassbinder

The Harder They Come – directed by Perry Henzell

Aguirre, the Wrath of God – directed by Werner Herzog

Sleuth – directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz

The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie – Directed by Luis Buñuel
