There are so many genres and sub-genres of films out there that I difficult to decide what to watch.
And Lord knows I have a stack of movies on DVD & Blu-ray I bought and still haven’t watched.
I recently start researching 70s and 80s heist movies as I remember watching a few when I was younger and loving them – I wanted to revisit them and so I have brought together a list of 70s heist movies I want to watch (or have watched already.
I guess this is a bit of a list of movies for me to sit down and watch.
But hopefully you will get some new movies to watch, and let me know which ones are worthy of our time.
Movies are listed by year released.
