I wanna do a review as a Christmas present to you, because I'm not buying anything for anybody this year (I could blame The Economy, but it's more like The Economy has made everyone around me say, "let's just call it even this year," and I shrugged and said, "No sweat."). This will be a Movie I Like.
Hint: A 70s movie, not THE prototype of its subgenre, but ONE of them; not a sci-fi or supernatural movie. Not a horror movie except for one scene that is painfully uncomfortable to watch. |

Hmmmmm. I doubt any of these will be right (most are firmly in the Horror category), but they're my best guesses, unless we can get more hints.

Nope, nope, and nope.
Another hint: This was the most famous role for its star, who died during this decade. |

I doubt this is it, but it's the only one that I can think of offhand:

| Maybe someone else can figure it out, or maybe we could have another hint. I'm stumped. Is it a "quality" movie, or is it more a popcorn flick? |

| Sorry for the delay in answering. It's a quality movie, big hit. To narrow it down, it's from between '71 and '75. The sequels it spawned were pretty much all crap that dispensed with the social commentary are just fun action flicks. |
