"what do i do?" "shoot in black and white."

>> "the last picture show" is the movie that made me fall in love with movies. it just blew my mind. it's about everything that holds you back. it's about being young. >> there's heartbreak. wisdom that comes of age. and young people discovering how fast time goes. >> in "the last picture show," there was a quality of reality. there's no feeling of watching a performance but of experiencing another human being. >> really, it's a story about america. about the death of a way of life. >> so, you're closing the show? >> nobody wants to come to shows no more. baseball in the summer. television all the time. >> maybe a necessary death of an old hollywood that had to die to make way for a new generation of filmmakers to tell new stories. >> at the end of the '60s, hollywood was ballooning budgets up to catastrophic size.

>> here, i'll tell you what, i'll even pay for it in cash. >> fine. >> so it opens the door for smaller movies. and when the budget's lower, the artistic freedom tends to be higher. >> play misty for me. >> misty? >> all of a sudden, here's this young group of directors that came along and started blowing up the bridges behind them of the way things used to be, now were trying new ways. let's see if it works. >> "french connection" was about a couple of new york cops doing a hard hustle and busting a bunch of lowlife scumbag drug dealers. >> that car's dirty! >> billy freaken shot the film like a documentary. he found a way to make it so real. it really influenced me. my favorite gene hackman performances popeye doyle. >> gene hackman was so filled with anger. it just made me so happy to see that kind of life.

boiling. >> the car chase was undeniably actually happening in realtime. this was the greatest car chase in a film that wasn't supposed to be about a car chase. >> the new hollywood coming out was angry and young. and that anger changes the whole aesthetic of hollywood. >> there was something about movies in the '70s. they just were all very tangible. you felt like you were really in it. >> these dark, dark films that life is shit. and that's the punchline. >> movies are uglier. they're dirtier. they're more uncomfortable. they're more dangerous. they're more vietnam. >> we were starting to deal with the counterculture and taking it seriously, because we were

young, we were part of the counterculture. >> "patton" was a film about world war ii and connects with the greatest generation. but it's also a film about reconsidering war and connects with the vietnam generation. >> you are just a goddamn coward. >> and it is told with irony by this young screenwriter named francis ford coppola. >> coppola had his foot in old hollywood before that. he made a big warner brothers musical, "finnian's rainbow." >> i was very unhappy during the production, because you didn't get to cast, you didn't get to pick the art director, you didn't do the final postproduction. and out of my frustration, one of the highlights of the picture is a skinny kid that would come and watch what i was doing and

became a friend of mine was the only one more or less my contemporary and that was george lucas. >> i think student films are the only real hope. i think they're slowly beginning to realize that students know what they're doing. >> these guys saw hollywood as death. they were all very influenced by the fresh new wave in european films. that's how francis saw himself. his fantasy was that he was going to make a series of these out of hollywood movies with lucas and other people they attracted. they decided to start their own studio. called american zoetrope. >> the first movie is by george lucas. he makes "thx 1138." and it is a flop. it goes over everybody's head. and that's a problem. >> it probably almost ended lucas' career before it started. >> so american zoetrope was running into trouble. >> at the same time, paramount was running out of money. so i said, look, what would happen if we bought the rights to some really interesting

commercial novels and married that material to all these bright young filmmakers out there? >> when paramount came along and offered francis "the godfather," which he did not want to do because he still thought of himself as an auteur, he turned it down. >> i reminded francis with annoying frequency that he was broke. and that he had to take my offer to direct this picture. >> so what happens next? coppola finally takes the paying gig, which might be the most-beloved movie of all time. ♪ luna rossa ocean. the fragrance by prada. hey, did i tell you i bought our car from carvana? yeah, ma. it was so easy. i found the perfect car under budget too! and i get seven days to love it or my money back... i love it!

♪ ♪ "the godfather" is unquestionably one of the great movies of all time. its narrative sweep, the beauty with which it's made, the quality of its acting. all of those things are undeniable. >> godfather. >> the film is about power. it's about the succession of power. it's about morality. it's about responsibility. the fact that it's about a mafia family is just the dressing of it. >> al pacino's character michael is the youngest son of the godfather. he understands what's going on with his family. he explains it in cold-blooded detail to kay right there. >> my father made him an offer he couldn't refuse. >> what was that?

>> luca held a gun to his head, and my father assured him that either his brains or his signature would be on the contract. >> he's such an innocent. he was quiet, he was shy, he was outside, he was not in the inner circle. >> that's my family, kay, it's not me. >> he kind of deludes himself into believing that. but everything starts to change when his father is almost murdered. the family has to take revenge. and michael decides he will do it. >> let's set the meeting. >> one of the things i really related to is how he loved his family. and what he would do. he would do anything for his family. >> he's there in that restaurant. and you see that look in his eye, to say that either he knows he's going to shoot him or he doesn't know, he's trying to decide, he's going to get up and walk out. it's going to change his life forever.

it's one of those moments where, right after this happens, nothing's ever going to be the same again. >> how do you let go of what you've been raised in? and can you let go? or do you just become another one of the line of the same thing? >> i never -- i never wanted this for you. >> you really cared about these people. you understood the godfather's wanting his son to be separate from all of the crime. you understood his sadness when that didn't seem possible. >> senator corleone. governor corleone. >> it's very much a story about america, about both the promise and the destroyed promise of america. >> i saw that film four times in five days.

and up until that point i had always thought that "lawrence of arabia" was the greatest film ever made until the first "godfather." >> and then coppola wound up making a sequel that was perhaps even better than the first one. >> what we see in "the godfather part ii" is the story of michael corleone as he's evolving and becoming more ruthless and more powerful than his father could have ever imagined. >> you won. you want to wipe everybody out? >> i don't feel i have to wipe everybody out. just my enemies. that's all. >> at the same time, it's intercut with the story of his father, don vito corleone, as a young man, played by robert de niro, becoming a powerful mob leader in new york. >> i studied what brando had done in "the godfather" in gestures and whatever he'd done, expressions. i had to try to create the thing that he had.

>> i will make an offer you won't refuse. don't worry. >> it's very canny to have half the movie be this irresistible young man trying to figure out, first legitimately and then otherwise, how do i make it in america? >> everything don corleone did was for his family. whereas michael, everything he does is about making money and accumulating power. >> he rationalizes by saying, this is for the family. but ultimately, he destroys the family. >> this is the product of francis ford coppola. you feel his sensibility. and this is the great revolution of the 1970s. >> it became very clear to the studios, if we could have a box office success with "the godfather," imagine what else these guys can do if we give them a chance.

>> the whole school of filmmakers and auteurs that came up in hollywood in the '70s were really roger corman's godchildren. >> cormanmade "b" movies for these exploitation companies. they were very, very low budget. >> suddenly, i had a group from ucla, sc, and nyu of young filmmakers. they learned on the set while directing. >> working with roger corman, it's like a college. you're tired, you're distracted and everything -- doesn't matter. you're shooting. >> francis coppola, marty scorsese, jack nicholson, ron howard, brian depalma, and me, began with roger. the new hollywood is unthinkable without roger. >> when i was making "grand theft auto," he said, ron, you keep doing a good job for me on this picture and you will never have to work for me again.

and i guess i never did work for roger again. but i'm forever grateful for the opportunity he gave me. >> martin scorsese made a few small films in the late '60s and early '70s, but people start to pay attention when he does this film called "mean streets." >> i wanted to make films about an area where i grew up. i didn't really see organized crime. i was living in it. >> marty scorsese burst upon the scene with a kind of frankness, violence, and a restlessness to find the rhythms of the streets. that don't feel anything like a movie. >> how much money you got from michael tonight? >> i got nothing. >> "mean streets" came out of some events that occurred to me and my friends, associating with people that can be detrimental to you, yet there's love involved there. >> the first time you sort of

see robert de niro dancing around like everybody else, you're like, what the [ bleep ] is that, who is that? >> hey, there ain't nothing wrong with me, my friend, i'm feeling fine. >> it was about friendship and loyalty. it was one of those movies that resonated with me because it reminded me of the same situation that i was in, just different color people. >> "taxi driver" really reflected that world that i knew. the steam coming from the streets. the nighttime of the city. it's always night. especially for a guy who wants to drive a cab at night. >> how is your driving record? >> it's clean. it's real clean, like my conscience. >> you going to break my chops? >> the conflict in the travis character to me was in de niro. and we knew that there was a truth to it. >> why won't you talk to me? why won't you talk to me? why don't you answer my calls when i call? you think i don't know you are here? >> marty scorsese lets people do -- he gets the best out of them because he lets them go as

far as they can go. >> it's a story about a guy who has a psychological decent into hell and finds redemption through an act of self-sacrifice and violence. >> the idea had been growing in my brain for some time. >> he decides to assassinate a presidential candidate. >> true force, all the king's men cannot put it back together again. >> and then he turns this crusade to rescue a child prostitute played by the 14-year-old jodie foster. >> get me out of here, all right? >> he seems heroic. but he isn't. >> the fearlessness of that performance. de niro was not interested in being sexy or pretty. just being real. and travis bickel, of course, is one of the great characters of 20th century film. >> you talking to me? you talking to me? >> i remember sitting at his feet -- >> you talking to me? >> and him beginning this phrase, "are you talking to me?"

>> who the hell else are you talking -- talking to me? >> not just something that i improved and worked on -- you know. i don't know, just seemed right. in the mirror and so on. >> well, i'm the only one here. >> i saw it happen and i saw him -- i saw him transform. >> okay. re so good to me. you worked hard to save for my future. so now... i want to thank you. i started investing with vanguard to help take care of you, like you took care of me. te quiero, mamá. only at vanguard you're more than just an investor you're an owner. helping you take care of the ones you love. that's the value of ownership. can dove stop 98% of daily hair damage? sandra treats one lock of hair with dove. glowing areas represent hair damage. dove precisely repairs so there are almost no signs... of visible damage.

non-existence. black emptiness. >> what did you say? >> i was just planning my future. >> in that period of time, there were two things that were really important to you. an ali fight and a woody movie. woody allen was the first comedy owe do you remember who did everything. >> this is sharon. >> hello. >> woody allen created this character who is always out of his element no matter what, whether it was in south america in the 1970s, or "sleeper" in the future, or russia in the 19th century. >> woody's only intention with those films was just to get laughs. >> this is annie hall. >> by 1977, he wanted to make a different kind of movie. and it just blew everybody away. >> driving a tad rapidly.

>> don't worry, i'm a very good driver. >> "annie hall" was about funny, intelligent people meeting, getting together, breaking up, getting back together. >> he was jewish. she was decidedly not jewish. >> you are what grammy hall would call a real jew. >> thank you. >> annie hall is the best relationship movie, i think, ever made. if you want to just take all the truths of a relationship, how it can work and not work, i think "annie hall" nails it. >> i'm in a bad mood, okay? >> he told that story non-chronologically. it took risks in the style of filmmaking. >> i can't believe this family. >> there are moments he's talking directly into the camera. >> nothing like my family. you know, the two are like oil and water. >> he shows both what his family talks about and does and what her family talks about and does. with these wonderful split screens. >> how often do you sleep together? >> do you have sex often? >> hardly ever.

maybe three times a week. >> constantly. i'd say three times a week. >> we always think of "annie hall" as being woody allen's film. but really, it's diane keaton who's created this great character of annie hall. >> oh, well, law-di-da, la-di-d. >> she had her own sense of style and she kind of steals the show. >> oh, lovely. >> swept the academy awards, which is rare for a comedy. it won best picture, best writer, best director, and best actress for diane keaton. >> i remember seeing it during college and being in tears at the end. not because it was sad, but just because i couldn't take the artistry. it's just this beautiful symphony. >> there was really this feeling of, how can you top "annie hall"? and in many ways, "manhattan"

did it. first of all, it stands out right away because of that beautiful black and white photography by the late, great gordon willis. and of course you had that score by george gershwin opening with "rhapsody in blue." >> it showed new york in the most romantic way. in a way that new york wasn't thought about in the '70s. >> hi. what are you doing here? >> well, i'm here, of course i'm here. >> here's a movie set mostly in little dialogue scenes between cynical, nervous intellectuals on a giant wide screen. >> isn't it beautiful out? >> there's this amazing sequence where they end up sitting on this little bench, and you see the 59th street bridge above them. i made it my business when i was in college to find that bench. >> this is really a great city. i don't care what anybody says. >> those are the kind of things that those movies made you do. you saw something amazing. in a part of the city that you'd never been in, and you would try to find them. >> "manhattan" was ostensibly a comedy.

but it's all the questions he loves. it's questions about mortality. >> why is life worth living? it's a very good question. >> so if you remove all the baggage of him as a comedy filmmaker and just watch it straight on as a film, it's just beautiful. >> mel brooks, why did you make "blazing saddles"? >> for money. >> "blazing saddles" is a classic western spoofing westerns, and it is one of the most subversive comedies that comes out in the '70s. >> governor! >> it's a movie that mel brooks cowrites with richard pryor about a black sheriff coming to this town and the townpeople not wanting him to be there. >> i love "blazing saddles" because it is such a revolutionary film. it deals with race with a sense of humor and candor. >> richard pryor was supposed to play the sheriff.

but warner brothers wouldn't insure him, because he was an exuberant experimenter in chemicals. and mel walked off the movie. "i can't make it without ritchie, i can't do it." and it was richard pryor who said, no, you have to make this movie. and you have to cast this guy. cleavon little. look how dark his skin is. he would terrify those people. >> i would like you to meet the new sheriff of rock ridge. >> i'd be delighted. wow! i've got to talk to you, come here. can't you see that that man is a ni -- wrong person, forgive me. >> the story was the strand to hang the pearls. the pearls were all of the jokes. >> look at that. steady as a rock. >> yeah, but i shoot with this hand. >> they were satirical, there were puns. they were sexual. they were sight gags. >> kinky. >> he even broke the fourth wall and the cast is running out of

warner brothers. i mean, it was just crazy. >> i asked him, is it a movie you could make today? he said, i could barely make it then! >> dr. frankenstein. >> "young frankenstein" is a brilliant satire. >> frankenstein. >> and mel went to extraordinary lengths to get the details right. the look of it, the black and white. >> why did you make it in black and white? >> it was a glorious homage to the horror classic. it had took done in black and white if we were going to do it properly. >> it's alive, it's alive! it's alive! >> he took that genre, did it perfectly, and then bent it. >> what knockers. >> oh, thank you, doctor.

>> "young frankenstein" is a masterpiece, in my opinion, and beautiful. i was so in love with gene wilder. he's so sexy in that movie. i used to tell people that i will marry gene wilder when i grow up. >> excuse me, sir, is this the delta house? >> sure. >> "animal house" was really the first raunchy coming of age sex comedy. it was just frat boys. just running around doing crazy, crazy stuff. that was lampoon humor. it's edgy. it's borderline or over the line racist, sexist, all those things. >> mine's bigger than that. >> i beg your pardon? >> oh, my cucumber. >> and we're making fun of that. smartly. so, that was -- that was what we did. >> john belushi was one of the breakout stars from "saturday night live." he had such energy and power.
