Do you love movies more than most people? Then you already know that American cinema has undergone numerous periods of dynamic change, and the 60s and 70s are no exception. There's just something about this era of cinema that was truly influential on the film industry and pop culture at large. The 1960s and 1970s were two decades of change, and nowhere is that more apparent than in the movies from the time. Cinema in the 1960s reflected the decade of fun, fashion, rock 'n' roll, tremendous social changes, and transitional cultural values. This was a turbulent decade of monumental changes, tragedies, cultural events, assassinations and deaths, and advancements. Yet innovation was happening too—Alfred Hitchcock released his genre-defining Psycho in 1960, completely reinventing the horror movie. The 70s saw the emergence of a new American film full of cynicism of post-modern society with the sweeping romanticism of Pre-Cold War Hollywood. There's something specifically, quaintly wonderful about the counterculture movies of the 60s and 70s: the costumes, the slang-y dialogue, the hallucinogen-inspired cinematography, the way the color temperatures have faded just so. But just how well do you really know the movies that made their mark during the 60s ad 70s? Think you can name all of the most popular and influential films that were produced over these two decades by just one image? Let's see how much of a movie buff you really are! Put your thinking cap on now, hit the play button, and show us what you've got. Good luck!
