Old movies

[miketx]

So I'm once again watching the Godfather. I've seen it many times. I've also read the book and the GF part 1 follows the book but the book is way way way expanded on the movie. Godfather part 2 and 3 aren't in the book except for a small part of part 2. The characters are expanded greatly too. I recommend reading the book if you like the movie, it will explain somethings to you. Anyway, old movies. They can make you go oh my gosh pretty easy! As I did when I saw the opening scenes of GF3.

I thought you said OLD movies

The Usual Suspects is pretty good. I started watching it again the other day but fell asleep half way through it.

For some reason I wasn't a fan of the Godfather movies.

When you had hair on your head and you could see your shoes, huh?

I have varied tastes in old movies. Rocky Horror, Napoleon Dynamite, Caddyshack, Predator, The Natural, Casa Blanca, The Good, The Bad and the Ugly are a few favs.

Twelve Angry Men, Citizen Kane, Touch of Evil, North by Northwest, Rear Window.

Some more well known, some hidden gems. All worth watching in my opinion. All released well before I was born.

Looks like most of you have missed or ignored the point of this topic. For that, you are all awarded three demerits.

The Usual Suspects is among my favorite crime films, that and God Father I and II, Goodfellas and the Departed.

Thin Man series, almost anything with Cary Grant, Myrna Loy, Clark Gable, James Cagney, Bowery Boys.

Many of the old gangster films. Many had serious drama but some had some comedy in them. Eddie G. ...in Brother Orchard was one.

This was one of my favorite gangster comedies.

A Night Before Christmas (1942) - IMDb

as well as this remake
Stop, You're Killing Me (1952) - IMDb

of this

A Slight Case of Murder (1938) - IMDb

"Suddenly". I mean that was the name, with Frank Sinatra as the bad guy...I never heard of this film before 2013. Which is weird in and of itself. Sinatra as a presidential assassin even. Predated the Manchurian candidate...

It was like they knew how to do it with the restrictions of language and nudity in that era but still sent a message of the same.

So many brilliant "film noir" movies out there, thanks to You Tube.

I know it's not that old but today I've watched the movie "Web of the Spider" with Anthony Franciosa and Klaus Kinski.
One of the best movies I've ever seen!
