Book Reviews of The Stewardess Is Flying the Plane!: American Films of the 1970s
Book Review: Great pictures,lousy text.
Summary: 2 Stars
The pictures are the main selling point here. Unfortunately the text is shaky . It offers a cursory study of the films of the decade and the writer appears to have used poor research methods as evidenced by a profile he offers on George Kennedy in which he mistakenly states that he played a sadistic prison guard in the 1967 COOL HAND LUKE. Kennedy actually won an oscar for that film and played a slow witted prisoner . The introductory interview with Peter Bogdonovich is also pointless as the director doesn't recall seeing many movies from the decade and shoots down the writer's thesis when he states that filmmakers of the period weren't any more a close knit community than directors of previous decades.
