Classic old film's you enjoy

[Donegal Hibby]

Lately the only type of movie's I want to watch are the old classic's , I've watched " The Guns of Navarone" and " Rio Bravo " both I've watched many times before but still enjoy them from time to time. Which got me wondering what old classic movies do you all enjoy going back too ?

All the epic WWII films can always be relied upon, although since I've invested in iptv I very rarely watch them.

Used to love spaghetti westerns when I was a kid, cowboys v indians

The Ten Commandments.
Brilliant.

[Lancs Harp]

Loved Spaghetti Westerns as mentioned previousky in the thread, the Sergio Leone stuff. Real old school films, Casablanca is a favourite classic of mine.

Perspective or your age I suppose. The Wizard of Oz was 40 when I was 18 and Raging Bull about a year. Both are classics but one wasnt yet at 18.
Films I'll watch any time on the telly. Some like it hot, White Heat, The Maltese Falcon, The Philidelphia Story ( and the musical version High Society), any Hitchcock, any Mel Brooks, Godfather 1& 2, Indianna Joness & Back to the Futures, Wizzardm of Oz and/ or Willie Wonka

I could genuinely list close to 100 old films and TV series. I used to sit and watch them with my dad when I was younger and it's some of the best memories I've got.

Favourite 5 off the top of my head would be Rio Bravo, The Bridge on the River Kwai, Ice Cold in Alex, Our Man in Havana, On the Waterfront.

Lots of Eli Wallach, John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart, James Dean and Marlon Brando films were firm favourites in our house, as well as lots and lots of Laurel and Hardy. They don't make them like that any more!

[The Modfather]

Regularly watch:

A Bridge Too Far
Serpico
Once Upon A Time In The West
The Good The Bad & The Ugly
Cool Hand Luke
Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid
All The Presidents Men

Watched The Odd Couple & Three Days Of The Condor recently as well.

Paul Newman & Robert Redford popular in our household as well as countless others, Steve McQueen, De Niro, Pacino etc

[He's here!]

12 Angry Men, The Swimmer, To Kill A Mockingbird, All About Eve, Goodbye Mr Chips to name just a few oldies. More 'recently' All the President's Men, Annie Hall.

Watched it for the first time a few years ago.

One of the best war films ever made.

[heretoday]

Anything with Jack Lemmon in it. Or Dustin Hoffman. Proper actors.

[Mon Dieu4]

As a kid I used to love Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin films, I like the majority of old westerns and although it's not from the golden age of cinema I love The Man who would be King

[WeeRussell]

I’ll stick to ten (probably pushing the boundary for ‘old classics’ with some)

The sons of Katie Elder
The shootist
Big Jake
Rio Bravo
(Can’t stand that John Wayne, me)
Midnight express
The life of Brian
How the west was won
An American tail
12 angry men
It’s a wonderful life

[Alfiembra]

Watched “Close encounters of the third kind” last night, had forgotten all about that one.
