Classic Films

Discuss classic films (~1973 or earlier) that will hopefully bring more awareness of them as both entertainment as well as an art form.

For me, I watched two great ones:

Out of the Past (1947)

  • Uber-classic film noir, well-acted and intriguing.

The Tale of Zatoichi (1962)

  • The first in many follow-up films, very amazing. I liken it to 1982's Conan the Barbarian in that it's more about showing rather than telling which I prefer. I'm looking forward to watching subsequent films in the long series.

I watched The General from 1926. Harold Lloyd movies are always a hit in my house.
