A Star Is Born (1976) 37% EDIT “Get the old message, girls, and in pounding stereo -- you still can't have a career and a man. Not that your man will actively hold you back -- he'll just destroy himself in protest.” – Spare Rib Sep 22, 2021 Full Review The Turning Point (1977) 63% EDIT “All is resolved in laughter and kisses, with both women accepting their different lives in a way which I think we're supposed to see as mature. It was certainly far too cosy for me.” – Spare Rib Sep 22, 2021 Full Review Jonah Who Will Be 25 in the Year 2000 (1975) 85% EDIT “Berger and Tanner seem generally at sea with their female characters, which leads them into all sorts of doldrums, mystifications and annoyances. I mean, how can they have missed the fact that woman's liberation also exploded in the late 60's?” – Spare Rib Sep 22, 2021 Full Review Coming Home (1978) 83% EDIT “I found the film's portrayal of machismo in crisis pretty convincing. Fonda acts Sally Bender's stumblings from conformity to politicisation with tenderness and precision, and Dern is moving as the all-American hero going into self-destruct.” – Spare Rib Sep 22, 2021 Full Review New York, New York (1977) 58% EDIT “It's nice of Hollywood to let us see women making a success of their work. Pity, though, we're only allowed to see that work and success inasmuch as it carves up their relationships with their fellas.” – Spare Rib Sep 22, 2021 Full Review EDIT “It's the most erotic film I've ever seen. And it's not sexist.” – Spare Rib Sep 22, 2021 Full Review
