The documentary "Crisis 1975" directed by Morgan Neville takes viewers deep into the political and cultural milieu of the 1970s in the United States. The film focuses on iconic movies such as "Taxi Driver", "Chinatown", and "The Godfather Part II", and features insights from critics like Martin Scorsese, Ellen Burstyn, and Oliver Stone. It shows how New Hollywood thrived amid political turbulence, the end of the Vietnam War, and the Watergate scandal. Archival footage is combined with interviews of key figures to illustrate the era’s creative boom and its challenges.
"It’s a unique look at a time when film was both risky and free," says Jodie Foster.
"We see how each of these films reflects social change," notes Seth Rogen.
