What a great movie.

I'll add:

And Then There Were None (the one on the island)
Duck Soup
A Night at the Opera
Animal Crackers

The Bank Dick
It's A Gift
Never Give a Sucker an Even Break
You Can't Cheat an Honest Man
International House

These last five are from my favorite comedian of all time.

Spartacus, one of my all time favorite films, is not a black and white film (the Kirk Douglas one anyways). It is an awesome film though.

Sorry guys,

Both of these are color movies.

hotreds · 08-15-2010, 08:11 PM

But they watched them on B&W TVs!

I was wondering about that one too. I think maybe the original was B&W, then Ted had it colorized and that is the version most likely to be aired on the movie channels.

I too think Cool Hand Luke was color. But one of the best scenes in movie history. Two words: Car wash.

Liberty Valance.

Good one Scott, one of my fav's for both John Wayne and James Stewart.

Whoops! but if they were in B & W they'd still be awsome.

mosesbotbol · 08-12-2010, 06:09 PM

Battleship Potemkin

Eraserhead

Birth of a Nation

OLS · 08-12-2010, 06:48 PM

Wow, anything with the Marx Brothers, that stuff was just so perfectly entertaining.
I like old Harold Lloyd films.
I thought In Cold Blood was just a terriffic film. To Kill a Mockingbird, goes without saying.
Bringing Up Baby....Some Like it Hot might be (IS) my actual favorite.

Haha, Subvet named a few I'd forgotten. All the Thin man films are cool as $hit.
And Paper Moon WAS cool.

SaltyMcGee · 08-12-2010, 07:16 PM

Good Night and Good Luck.

CigarNut · 08-12-2010, 11:21 PM
