McCabe & Mrs Miller

You know, we'd probably be pretty down with Leonard Cohen.

The Last Picture Show


Listen:

This movie is fantastic. Stop what you're doing and put it at the top of your queue.

Great imagery, expertly executed diegetic sound, and uniformly great acting, much of it by actors you didn't think were that good in the first place. Big Pete Bogs is the real deal, and it's a crying shame that it took us so long to see this. I can't say enough good things about this movie other than it convinced us that much more that Imperial Cruisers sounded the death knell of the motion picture industry.

Also: Cybill Shepherd!

She's a good actress too.

Billy Jack


There's this episode of Sabrina the Teenage Witch where Martin Mull and Melissa Joan Hart fight over the theme for the Homecoming Dance. She wants Grease, he wants Billy Jack. She wins, but he still shows up in a western shirt and black hat.

That shit had me rolling on the motherfucking floor.

Billy Jack is classic. Billy Jack is a badass, Howard Hesseman is a badass, and Susan Foster has a hot ass! Too much soapboxin'; really great improv-in'. Released in 1971. All you need to know. See it now and up your cred.
