Avildson -- Rocky, Rocky II, etc. How about those disaster films from the seventies -- Towering Inferno, Poseidon Adventure, The Hindenburg, even Jaws -- they must've used slo-mo, but I can't recall And some guesses: Fosse -- All That Jazz, Cabaret, Lennie Hill -- The Sting, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Slapshot Landis -- Animal House Schrader -- Hardcore Coppola -- The Godfather, The Conversation And Kubrick --2001: A Space Odyssey, but I think that was the late 60's.
