Originally posted by DonVitoCorleone: Mista, here are some films I think you'd like that are made before 1970:
A bout de Souffle (Breathless) Le Samourai (The Samurai) 2001: A Space Odyssey Citizen Kane
A bout de souffle is the most innovative of them all. It's really the first film that uses the camera freely instead of using it generically like other filmmakers did at the time.
I've seen Citizen Kane and 2001, and I consider both to be really good films. But like I said, it's more like I respect the films rather than actually like them, although both need a rewatch.
Le Samourai i've been trying desperately to see but I can't seem to find it.
And Breathless I've only heard mention of here and there. Thanks for the suggestions though.
