97. The Cotton Club (1984)

A typically troubled Coppola production, The Cotton Club was, for a while, most famous for its overspending, backstage bitching and for the fact that producer Robert Evans was investigated for murder during the shoot. It even bombed at the box office but this musical gangster movie, set in a 1920s Harlem nightclub, is now regarded as a masterpiece of the genre. Based on stories written by the likes of Mario Puzo, with an enviably A-list cast and a swinging Duke Ellington soundtrack, this is a truly sophisticated musical work.
