    The Conversation is a great movie too. The seventies was the golden years of Hollywood.

    Phenomenal actor who just absorbed into the role he was playing. Sinister, wholesome or indifferent he just had that ability about him. Maybe cliche but came off as the everyman actor and was never much to flaunt "star power" of the Hollywood thing. Random favs early were one the French Connection, always right at the very top. I remember one called the Conversation that stood out. Just one of those off the wall roles directed by Coppola. Bite the Bullet was good and he killed the smaller role of Polish commander in A Bridge too far. Poseidon Adventure, Mississippi Burning, Unforgiven and Bat-21 were absolutely awesome. Stood out in Uncommon Valor too. One of the very best to ever fill the big screen, rest in peace Gene Hackman.

    They don't even make one film a year that I want to watch these days. If I do watch a movie now it's most likely something from the seventies.

    I think this still is showing on Netflix in the States.





    Don't even watch the trailer, just watch the film. If it isn't on netflix it'll be easy to find on the pirate sites. Just make sure the download has subtitles.

    Think this may be on Google play or Amazon. I have never seen it but will check it out when I have the time to watch it. Pacino and Hackman gotta be worth a gander. Bit of a cult classic that flew under the radar apparently.
