I also love old Martin & Lewis movies, and John Wayne movies. And I used to swoon over Elvis' movies when I was a young girl (even though he wasn't a very good actor).

I've always been a fan of Gone With the Wind...but I'm more of a musical kind of fan. My favorite has always been Meet Me in St Louis! LOVE that movie!!

I overdosed on old classics when I first got my TiVo, but I'm a MAJOR sucker for all the old musicals:

Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
Oklahoma
Carousel
Holiday Inn
Show Boat
On the Town
High Society
Unsinkable Molly Brown
and those already mentioned

Denise < --- needs "corny old movies" sometimes

 

[stitch79]

I like The Heiress, it was on a couple nights ago

I really want to see Roman Holiday but it always is on when I cant watch it! Grr.

 

[Jungle Skipper]

My all time favorite movie is Casablanca...it kills me every time!

Tonight I am going to some new film club set up by the local arts center and they are showing Lawrence of Arabia. Should be fun!

Jungle Josh

All the above mentioned films are worthy of being mentioned for sure but my favorites are:

Its a Wonderful Life.

Bringing up Baby.

Early Marx Brothers.

Just about any Laurel and Hardy short film.

Full length L&H Way Out West or Sons of the Desert, I also love the one where Stan smokes his own hand as a pipe and Chumps at Oxford is a total CLASSIC, get to see Stan play a totally differant character!

Whattya mean Fail-Safe is an obscure film!!
