Poll: Best Kris Kristofferson movie from 1971-80

i've never seen convoy but based on the trailer and the c.w. mccall song it's in line to be my favorite movie ever:

i saw blume in love a few months ago and it was mostly excellent, but the ending was bizarre in a bad way. otherwise i'd def go to bat for it as a great lost character-driven '70s flick.

i voted for alice without even looking at the rest of the options - cool movie

Cisco Pike for me. Besides being a good movie, it's got all those great songs from the album that Travis buys Betsy in Taxi Driver.

Cisco Pike is pretty flawless. Alice is very good. It's an interesting resume.

Heaven's Gate has its moments and I still haven't seen A Star Is Born, but it's either Alice or Alfredo Garcia. Remind me to flip a coin later.

also once when I was like 14 our family was on a road trip in the middle of nowhere, AZ and we saw a whole bunch of trailers parked on the side of the road. I made my dad stop the car because I knew it was a film shoot. Some guy at the craft services table said it was a Kris Kristofferson movie about cyborgs in the desert. So I took a shine to him after that.

The movie is called Knights. Still haven't seen it but this is the imdb description:
In the future, a kickboxer and a robot lead a revolution against ruling cyborgs.

"knights: a new day... is about to dawn." *sunglasses* *YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH*

I desperately wanna see Sailor Who Fell from Grace..., it's one of my favourite books.

Inclined to vote for Pat Garrett of the ones I've seen.

Dear Graphic Designer/Artist:

1. Whose head is this?
2. Where is the head of the girl in pink underpants?

Anyway, I have only seen "Alice," so.

convoy is fun, watched it on late nite TV millions of years ago. love that "all-star" cast like a made for TV movie. but i have to vote for this violent epic:

that movie is crazy but putting that in this poll seems a bit off, he's in the movie for what, 3 minutes?

Best performances: Pat Garrett and Alice...
Best movie: Blume in Loev

xxxp Pink underpants girl's head is bottom left, by Burt's shoulder.

oh yeah, girl is the other way around..

I desperately wanna see Sailor Who Fell from Grace..., it's one of my favourite books.

streaming on netflix, it's great

I'll prolly vote for it even though alice is technically the correct answer

Ah, yes, OK. That still leaves Mystery Floating Head.

Mystery Floating Head also has an arm.

Recently learned that Donnie Fritts apparently has small parts in a bunch of these movies, maybe even Alfredo Garcia, simply by virtue of being Kris's buddy.

I've got Sailor on VHS at my house. The cover boasts "***"
Really? Three stars?
It's not as good as a lot of other movies on this list, but it's okay.

yeah, out of the ones i've seen here, his best performance is in pg & billy the kid. he's great in "alice" too.

that movie is crazy but putting that in this poll seems a bit off, he's in the movie for what, 3 minutes?

you can vote for those 3 minutes then!

re the poster, what's up with the severed-head blonde on the far right, with the rose in her teeth?

i meant to post this last nite

i'd like to imagine the 70s were just a frazetta-meets-jack davis oil painting come to life

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

his latest no fuckin around classic blows up screens this fall:

I'll just assume that--despite the lack of a rating--this film won't deliver the much anticipated Morgan-Ashley sex scene.

few yrs outside this poll, but i just watched flashpoint from '84 - was v good, kris owns in it. awz tangerine dream score too

none of them as good as Blade
