Really difficult to narrow down but for me it probably has to be The Talented Mr. Ripley.

The way Judd Law and Hoffman nail the snobbish elite of that time period was just mesmerizing and Damons desire to be like them but clearly with less of the inherited attitude was spot on.

They all played their roles well, even Paltrow who has never been a great actor in my opinion. Every character in the movie was both a little creepy and interesting in their own way.

All the President's Men.
 
We know today that the then Republicans were used by the Progressives who took over the Democrat Party. Watergate was stupid.
So, just victims for the last 50-60 years then.
 
You crybaby bois need them.
I am telling you. Great gains in social justice have happened. A percentage of parents on issues like this are rain washed. Children are not to be screwed with. All of the money spent in schools, and we have a terrible system for real education to show for it. We all know kids also get in trouble. Crimes, drugs and so on. All the resources spent on bullying and whatever else and it still exists. We have children now. Tadpoles and scouts who kill. And you created this. You did.

Hilarious

That you think the 1920's were better. What type of Amish do you want to be?

That is what you got from the statement. It is tough enough to be a parent. Open season came into the schools with parents working.

We have tampons in boy's restrooms in public schools. Stupidity.
I teach in the Public School.
I don't see what you describe, but you probably FOUND one or two to fit your agenda.

Once again, I will never understand the Transgender Phenomenon. NEVER.

Decades ago, in a general sense latchkey children became a fair percentage of the population. Parents slowed down in helping in homework or being as intensive as they once were. I see little change in bullying. This after spending bookoo dollars on it.
 
The Asphalt Jungle (1950)


Great heist film, maybe not as much under-rated as little known in this time.

One of Marylin Monroe's early movies. A small part but the best acting I've seen her do.

Sterling Hayden, a great actor and a great man who was blacklisted for a while because he fought with the Greek partisans against the Nazies (!), not in a movie, but in real life.

Sam Jaffe as the brains, James Whitmore as the guy with a limp and all courage, Alonzo Emmerich as Monroe's sugar daddy who finances the heist and then tries to double cross the crew.

Great movie!

And this is whose fault?
Anxious who you choose to blame.

You don’t have to.
