Every '70s Movie Is Fifteen Years Old!


As in life, birthdays start to blur after a while, but because so much of what exists in the digital space is ephemeral, it seems significant to note that Every ’70s Movie has been humming along for fifteen years since its launch on October 14, 2010. While the era of daily posting is long gone, there’s still plenty of life in this endeavor, and I’m looking forward to the end of this calendar year, when getting two big projects off my desk will allow for a bit of overdue ’70s immersion. Occasions such as this blog’s latest milestone remind me that as much joy as I get from exploring Me Decade cinema and reporting about what I find, this project would be meaningless if there wasn’t an audience for these reviews. To readers who’ve been with the blog for years, to those who joined the party more recently, and to anyone visiting this page for the first time, thank you. Happy birthday to all of us! More reviews are coming, albeit at the unpredictable pace that’s become the norm at Every ’70s Movie, and in the meantime, keep on keepin’ on!

Unrelated, I would be remiss if I didn’t note the recent passing of the remarkable Diane Keaton, one of the leading lights of ’70s cinema; whether she was sparkling in Woody Allen comedies or startling in tough dramas such as Looking for Mr. Goodbar, to say nothing of her important work in the Godfather series, Keaton was a gifted interpreter of the human experience, a fashion icon, and a singularly interesting personality. RIP.

Happy 15th, Peter. I love this blog and the work you are doing. When a new post drops, I always stop what I'm doing to have a read. And then I typically find myself seeking out the movie. Stay groovy!
