Favorite Classic Films?

There are hundreds of movies that I saw as a kid on TV that were amazing. I love most of the spaghetti westerns especially For a Fistful of Dollars.

Cool Hand Luke
One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
North by Northwest
Ryan's Daughter

and a film that completely enthralled me when I first saw it...
12 angry men.

These are just a few that immediately came to mind.

 

a clock work orange

 

On the Waterfront is one of my all time favorites. Saw it in Germany at age 13, in German, but didnt speak the language, and all I could think was that I wanted to see it as soon as I got back to the States. Also, 12 Angry Men, Fail Safe, and of course, any of the old Godzilla movies, lol.

 

oh my gosh
i LOVE classic movies
the ones i own:
-the maltese falcon
-the big sleep
-key largo
-the man who shot liberty valance
-mr smith goes to washington
-dark passage
-to have and have not

and a few other random ones
i love bogart and bacall (as you can see), james cagney, mickey rooney, peter lorre, mary astor, ida lupina
the 30s, 40s and 50s are my favourite movie eras

Fucking totally awsome classic i watched recently, Jack The Ripper, 1959..

 

Right on!!! I loooove Ida Lupino, too!! I am so glad to see that there is an appreciation for old movies still.....

 

Lady in the cage (1964)..

 

casa blanca hands down

the piano in that melts my heart!

 

i must say 8 1/2 fellini and his first techniclor movie , damn i forgot the title the one which is starring his wife as the main actress. movie full with beautiful vivid psychedelic colors

 

jimmy stewart is pretty much the greatest, especially mr. smith goes to washington and philadelphia story (cary grant and katherine hepburn too!)
i also love to kill a mockingbird with gregory peck, roman holiday, breakfast at tiffany's, 12 angry men, the apartment (jack lemmon!) and many others
also, charlie chaplain makes my life worth living... i love "the kid"

 

Stand by me

 

anything laurel and hardy.

 

im currently downloading The Grapes of Wrath. I love that movie..havent watched since middle school. I loved the book even more!

 

Chinatown.

It is by far one of my favorite films of all time. I am always equally engaged every time i see it.

I suppose the two that come the closest are Taxidriver and Dr. Strangelove.

 

Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, and...of course...The Birds.
Love them.

 

Citizen Kane....definately my new favorite

 

Wow, I never knew thre was a movie. I'll hve to look it up cos the book is sheer brilliance.

BTW, has anybody seen 'Steppenwolf' the movie. I think it may have been made in the 60's. I'd be interested to here a little about it, cos the book is my favourite of all time.

 

All About Eve

I enjoy classic films, too.
