Another Altman flick is the Long Goodbye with Elliot Gould, about a Sam Marlowe type private eye stuck in the early 1970's, very original & entertaining. I loved Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (and nearly everything else starring Clint Eastwood), but it sure ended on a downer, huh. Films from this time were more daring and edgy because of the nature of the times and because the studio "system" had broken down in the early sixties and directors were unleashed; at least thats how I understand it (I wasn't alive at the time).
