It's funny how Lumet gets overlooked in the Favorite Directors memes because his style is intentionally non-arty so you barely notice he's there. And yet he's the guy who gave us some of the greatest 70s movies ever: Dog Day Afternoon, Serpico and (the ultimate achievement that every director wish they had on their resume) Network.
