A child’s death shatters the suburban dream. The cast is stellar, but Mary Tyler Moore is perfection as a woman whose foundation is shaken to the core. At least Timothy Hutton won best supporting for his performance as her son.

Edna (Ellen Burstyn) discovers healing powers after a near-fatal car crash that kills her husband. The power draws followers and acclaim. The secret to her power is love; and a woman giving love away to whomever wants it, challenges social norms. Men try to rein her in. An interesting look at charismatic Christianity and its limits.

Goldie Hawn’s charm is explosive in this comedy that starts out edgy and fun but ends up too shiny, with no depth. Eileen Brennan is scene-stealing as Captain Doreen.

Gena Rowlands commands the screen as mob mol helping save a kid in this tense and terrific 70’s classic. She is fearless and fashionable in silky, pleated Ungaro, evading the gangsters who want to murder the kid.

Sissy Spacek won the Oscar for her portrayal as Lorretta Lynn. The choice was correct. The singing and charm were all her own. Tommy Lee Jones is excellent as her supportive husband.
