Stunning classic, fabulous soundtrack, great acting, amazing shots- and young Harrison Ford as well.
A brilliantly observed film with Gene Hackman the observer - in one of his finest performances. An absolute must.
How excellent to see a Blu-ray of this classic this afternoon after seeing it once video-taped off late night TV many years ago.
I think the Oscar people got it wrong by preferring Coppola's other nomination for best picture in 1974, even if that was Godfather II. I think it's the best 'paranoid '70s' thriller genre out there, and it has come up beautifully on B-R as has the atmospheric soundtrack & Hackman's sax playing...
I don't know if it was a sly nod by CP to include Enemy Of The State - a sort of sequel from 25 years later - in the same envelope, but if it was it was a nice touch. It certainly made a great double bill for us today.
