Is 3 Women the best movie of the 1970s?

I think it is. Robert Altman topped Nashville with this bizarre, dreamlike masterpiece. Shelley Duvall and Sissy Spacek are unforgettable. How do DLers feel about it?

I can't believe Spacek didn't get a Supporting Actress nomination. It was a very weak year for that category. Leslie Browne in The Turning Point.

I saw it in a film class in college. I have pages of notes on it. the teacher's lecture was so fascinating I wrote down practically everything she said.

No, I wouldn't say so, but it is very underrated and its a great movie.

R1 Share any insights?

What r2 said. But I also think Sissy S is every bit as great as Duvall.

The ending doesn’t quite work for me though, admittedly.

I always thought it would make a great double feature with The Man Who Fell to Earth.
