What old movies are you watching.

I just watched Raiders of the Lost Ark. Six inches of fucking black bars ruined it.

My favorite action adventure. It has just the right mix of comedy and action.

The Godfather! Amazing film about the strength of spirit and high responsobility

Citizen Kane
I don't know if anyone has mentioned it but it's a great movie, not one that everyone will enjoy. However, the last 10 minutes of the movie are among the best.

Absolutely agree. Recently have just seen it, at the beginning thought that it will be ordinary "classical" american movie, but near the end recognized that is something good. Among contemporary cinema this is one of the best films, reminding the plot of Chehov's stories.

He was a man who got everything and then again lost everything. No one but audience understood his dying worlds. - Great Movie

Yes, also liked sign at the end: "No trespassing", which means not to try to become the one like he was before dying. Or not to intersect the line between his life outside the fence of his castle and beyond it.

Well's has a masterful touch when it comes to setting a scenic, with music, camera angles, and light. I love most of his early films. I don't think any movie conveyed the changing of times in the early 20th century better than the "The Magnificent_Ambersons." Touch of Evil, was a great film noir B-movie. "The Third Man" was directed by Carol Reed starring Wells but it could well have been directed by him. The street and sewer scenes in Vienna with the Zither playing are wonderful. The photography is so good in these movies, that stills are good enough for an art museum.

I like the old Sherlock Holmes movies. That's about it for the pre-1950s genre.

A Face In the Crowd.

A Face In the Crowd.

I always wondered why Andy Griffith didn't make more dramas. Granted he did comedies well, but I think this movie proved he was certainly capable of excelling in dramatic roles.

 

[Esmeralda]

Anatomy of a Murder

Anatomy of a Murder

I saw that last week for the second or third time. It's a good movie but I've seen better courtroom dramas.

 

[Shipwreck]

Watched I Want to Live tonight. The gas chamber scene is creepy. I read that this scene is exactly how they did executions back then.

That movie came out when I was in high school and the subject was so depressing, I never saw it.

 

[Shipwreck]

Watch it, Flop.

Watch it, Flop.

I've had so much sadness in my life, I don't have a lot of tolerance for movies with sad endings.

Just watched The Killing. Sterling Hayden is great in this flick. Kubrick is my fave.
