1974 was a great year for disaster, comedy and crime. The Towering Inferno has guests fleeing a skyscraper fire, Blazing Saddles has a Black railroad worker appointed sheriff of a racist town, and Murder on the Orient Express traps a detective with suspects on a snowbound train. Badlands, The Conversation, Young Frankenstein, Chinatown and The Godfather Part II round out the eight.
