The most notable films from an exceptional era -- from Bonnie and Clyde (1967) to Heaven's Gate (1980).

I've decided to tighten up my criteria for this list. In order to qualify:

1. The movie must have been made via a major American studio (or at least financed by);

2. and yet without studio interference;

3. between the years 1967 and 1980;

4. capture a certain grittiness, authenticity, and spirit of the times.

You'll notice that certain directors (Woody Allen, John Cassavetes, Stanley Kubrick, etc.) do not appear on this list, since they worked outside of the studio system.
