Best Faye Dunaway Movies


Faye Dunaway is my favourite movie actress of the 1970’s. In the tradition of Hollywood stars like Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, Dunaway gave commanding performances on the screen in some memorable roles. Through some bad choices in the 1980’s, her movie career lost its momentum. Now she mostly makes guest appearances on television. Dunaway received her Academy Award for Best Actress in 1977.

In order, here are my favourite Faye Dunaway movies:

  1. Chinatown (1974)
  2. Network (1976)
  3. Bonnie and Clyde (1967)
  4. The Thomas Crown Affair (1968)
  5. Three Days of the Condor (1975)
  6. The Towering Inferno (1974)
  7. The Three Musketeers (1973)
  8. The Four Musketeers (1974)
  9. Little Big Man (1970)
  10. Barfly (1987)
  11. Eyes of Laura Mars (1978)
  12. Mommie Dearest (1981) 
Favourite Faye Dunaway quotes:
  • It’s true, I did a lot of great movies, and I’m happy. It was what it was, and now I think all of that has fed into where I am now, and I think it has taught me a lot. 
  • Since Star Wars, that film’s success led to bigger budgets, more hardware, that the great movies like the ones I did, which were studio movies, are now independent movies. They range from half a million to several million, and a lot of those have very interesting roles.

Best Dustin Hoffman Movies


Dustin Hoffman is my favourite actor of the 1970’s. In many of his earlier roles, he seemed to be cast as the outsider at odds with society. Nominated for many awards over the years, he has now matured into one the screen’s great character actors. Hoffman has won the Best Actor Oscar twice and has been nominated seven times.

Favourite Dustin Hoffman Quotes:
  • So when I told my parents I wanted to go into acting because I was flunking out of my first year of junior college, they were relieved that I had picked something other than joining the army. But I can’t imagine how they had high hopes for me.
  • There’s a rebirth that goes on with us continuously as human beings. I don’t understand, personally, how you can be bored. I can understand how you can be depressed, but I just don’t understand boredom.
