00:001975
00:02was the closest America came
00:04to saying, hey I got flaws too
00:06and for a brief moment
00:07cinema and pop culture was able to look at that
00:10but it was too much
00:12and we turned the hell away
00:131975
00:17crime was up, paranoia was rampant
00:20from Watergate to the
00:22bicentennial, America was having
00:24a nervous breakdown
00:25it was a nation at the crossroads
00:28told through the movies that captured
00:30its soul. 75
00:31was the most important moment
00:34in the history of the film this. Compared to
00:36now everything was paradise
00:37people used to really like good movies
00:40movies were made back then
00:46that didn't pander to
00:47trend. Jaws, all the
00:49president's men, taxi driver, Nashville
00:51cuckoo's nest network
00:53studios let go
00:55all the old conventions wiped away
00:57and we were creating a new world
01:00it's like the veneer was
01:02taken off
01:03a certain idealism and a certain
01:06hope that we thought that we had
01:07that was extinguished
01:09a film can either put you to sleep
01:12nicely or it can wake
01:14you up. People have got to know
01:15whether or not their president's a crook
01:17well I'm not a crook
01:18optimism becomes cynicism
01:21and Hollywood is
01:23reflective of that ship
01:25I like taking people into a dark theater
01:30and giving them an experience
01:31they'll never forget
01:32we want the lie
01:35because it feels good
01:36we want the heroes
01:38we want
01:39the happy ending
01:40were we living the American dream
01:42or an American nightmare
01:44the truth was more complex
01:47I wasn't observing
01:49oh here's a change in our society
01:50that was a society
01:51that's who we are
01:52the past
01:54now is looking a lot more like the future
01:56I don't care
02:10the future
02:10I don't care
02:11I don't know
02:11but that's who I am
02:12what i try
02:12the future
