The movies are:

Dog Day Afternoon
All the President’s Men
Annie Hall
Badlands
Carnal Knowledge
Carrie
Chinatown
The Deer Hunter
Dirty Harry
Young Frankenstein
The Graduate
The King of Marvin Gardens
The Last Detail
The Last Picture Show
Network
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
Rocky
The Exorcist
Harold and Maude
Shampoo
Thunderbolt and Lightfoot
Sleeper
Scarecrow
The Panic in Needle Park
Mean Streets
The Trip
Boxcar Bertha
M*A*S*H
Coming Home
The Godfather: Part I
The Godfather: Part II
The French Connection
Star Wars
Joe
Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore
Foxy Brown
Jaws

I was actually sort of surprised Thunderbolt and Lightfoot got mentioned (amazing film), most of the rest of these were fairly mainstream stuff (except for maybe Joe). What I wanna know is why the hell Peckinpah wasn't mentioned.

^ The titles above are but a small fraction of a complete list of "mentioned" movies in "Under the Influence" [i.e., there are MANY more]. Movies featured and those shown in the documentary--these are "mentioned," too. If you have not done so, click on the IMDB "Movie connections" link for this title and check it out.

I always try to check the IMDB site link(s) first for this type of information. Not only is it usually more accurate than users [surely there are exceptions!], but other members will be less likely to respond by "jumping down your throat!" e.g., "There's a link that lists the movies on the DVD, you &*(%$!"

Like I just tried not to do. Still, this is an old post, but thanks for the info/question.

Thanks for the list. I wish the filmmakers had listed titles that came from this period, and aren't too hard to find if you look.

This list would include

GAS, or it became necessary to destroy the world in order to save it
Vanishing Point
The Revolutionary
Valdez is Coming
Little Big Man
Slapshot
Smile
Pink Flamingos
