Re: 1970s American movies
'Nashville' directed by Robert Altman...Brilliant movie, absolute time capsule of 1975 in Tennessee.
IMDb
This movie tells the intersecting stories of various people connected to the music business in Nashville. Barbara Jean is the reigning queen of Nashville but is near collapse. Linnea and Delbert Reese have a shaky marriage and 2 deaf children. Opal is a British journalist touring the area. These and other stories come together in a dramatic climax. Written by Reid Gagle

And someone mentioned Chinatown - how did I miss that one?
I particularly enjoyed the movies where a particular US city is almost a star of the film in its own right - like Taxi Driver (New York) or Dirty Harry (San Francisco). Also - a few years later - New Orleans should have won an Oscar for The Big Easy ..........
