Alien, Jaws, and Apocalypse Now are my favourite films of the 70s.

Alien for its perfect blend of sci-fi and horror that captures the best attributes of both, Jaws for taking a simple story and making it great through great performances, characterization, editing, and music, and Apocalypse Now for its brilliantly hellish and surreal look at the madness of war.
