“Nashville”
1975
Robert Altman’s microcosm of 1970s America, as told through a swirl of stars, politicos and wannabes in the Tennessee music capital, is a searing, hilarious and magnificently edited piece of work full of life and observation. Ronee Blakley soars as crumbling country queen Barbara Jean, Karen Black rivets as icy diva Connie White and Barbara Harris is waiting in the wings, in case of an emergency. The result is one of the most important American films ever made and one of the best soundtracks, too
