Ten eminent contributors, some of whom wrote about the New Hollywood movement as it unfolded across the 1960s and 1970s, assess the convergence of film-industry developments and momentous social and political changes that created a new type of commercial film that reflected those revolutionary influences in American life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEven as New Hollywood first took shape, film industry insiders and commentators alike realized its significance. At the time, Pauline Kael compared the New Hollywood to the \"tangled, bitter flowering of American letters in the 1850s\" and David Thomson dubbed the era \"the decade when movies mattered.\" Thomson's words provide the impetus for this volume in which a cohort of seasoned film critics and scholars who came of age watching the movies of this era reflect upon and reconsider this golden age in American filmmaking.\u003cp\u003eContributors: Molly Haskell, Heather Hendershot, J.
