You never heard hilarity like the last 20 minutes of that movie. I mean, it just brought the house down. I re-watched that about two years ago at home with a buddy, and we were surprised at how much we were laughing. We thought it was so funny.

The Warriors absolutely started riots [when it came out]. And I'm a big fan of this movie. We screened it recently at the New Beverly.

I obviously saw Richard Pryor: Live in Concert.

I am 18. I just get off work, and it's Friday night, and I just got paid, and I go see All That Jazz. And while I'm in the theater, I lose my paycheck. It was a disaster. And I still love the movie—I still thought it was terrific.

I talked myself into liking this movie. I saw it again, and I didn't quite like it. Then I saw it again about 10 years later, and I didn't quite like it. But then I saw it two years ago, and I showed it to Daniella, my wife, and she had never seen any Star Trek movies, and she liked it. And finally seeing it a fourth time completely taking in what it's not? I finally could see it for what it was. I kind of appreciate it.

To me, Rocky II was my personal favorite movie, but Apocalypse Now was the movie of the year as far as I was concerned. And I took the bus to Hollywood to see it at the Cinerama Dome, and got the program that they gave out, and I still have the Life magazine where they have [Marlon] Brando on the cover. I was into everything about Apocalypse Now.

Now, this was my favorite movie of the year in 1979. I like Rocky II even more than Rocky.

I fucking loved North Dallas Forty when it came out. The humor was so profane. It has this whole raucous aspect of the humor, but it's also very bitter.

Alien was one of the events of the year. It holds up to this day, as well.

[This is] Jonathan Demme's Hitchcockian thriller that he did with Roy Scheider and Janet Margolin. I liked it a lot. It was a little dry then and it's still dry now...frankly, but I still kind of like it. It's got an interesting...spy story, but it has a big climax that's very exciting.

I completely identified with the French kid in it.

I saw this at the Cinerama Dome [in Hollywood] when it came out. I think Hair is kind of a travesty now, but people loved it when it came out. I loved it back then, I cried to Let The Sunshine In at Berger's grave and everything.

Not only did I see the movie version of Bell Jar, I actually wrote a review for it for a singles' magazine. If you wrote reviews, it would give you the press screening tickets.

I saw that a couple times. Gil Gerard, I thought he was really quite good in the movie. And it was actually kind of interesting because Star Wars came out in 1977 and it became the sensation. And so they needed a science fiction movie right away, but they all had to be big. So for a year they're waiting for another science fiction movie, but they’ve got to make them. But they had done Buck Rogers in the 25th Century for television and they could get it out sooner. So this was the first one out of the gate. Yeah, it was a fun one.
