A Decade Under the Influence is a 2003 American documentary film, directed by Ted Demme (posthumously released) and Richard LaGravenese. It was produced by Independent Film Channel.[1]

Summary[]

It is about the "turning point" in American cinema in the 1970s: New Hollywood. This was the final film that Ted Demme directed before his untimely death.

Inspiration[]

The title comes from the 1974 John Cassavetes film A Woman Under the Influence.[2]

Reception[]

The film has a 77% approval rating on the website Rotten Tomatoes, based on 30 reviews. The website's consensus reads, "Packed with amusing anecdotes and told through the perspective of those it lionizes, A Decade Under the Influence is too one-sided to serve as a comprehensive dissection of 1970s American film, but will still work a treat for movie buffs."[3]
