Old Farts Movie List
Nov. 18th, 2006 11:43 amProperty of [Bad username or unknown identity: delphia2000 Old Farts Movie List (110 Great Films) Mark which of these you've seen and write down the ones you haven't so you can go rent them because if you haven't seen them, you aren't a movie buff by any means…you're just a kid who went to the movies a lot. :o) Sure, there are plenty more films I (delph) could have listed here, but I've tried to choose some that are unknown gems or vastly overlooked, especially older films that I grew up seeing but are not so easily found anymore. Some I just couldn't not list even tho I'm sure most people have seen them. Some could be listed in more than one category, but I put them where I thought they fit best. If there are multiple versions of a movie, in most cases, I mean the original, not the remakes. If you're a color snob, I suggest you educate yourself to the beauty of black and white. If you've never seen a silent, you have my deepest sympathy. :o) Classics in B/W (15) (x) Casablanca ( ) The Quiet Man (x) Tarzan (Weismuller) (x) The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari (silent) (x) King Kong (x) The Philadelphia Story (x) The Scarlet Pimpernel (x) Laura (x) Birth of a Nation (silent) (x) Citizen Kane (x) Murder My Sweet (x) It Happened One Night (x) The Maltese Falcon (x) The Best Years of our Lives (x) Cheaper By The Dozen Culturally Significant (15) ( ) Medicine Man ( ) Ghandi (x) The Great Escape ( ) Joe ( ) Panic in Needle Park ( ) Hair (x) The Man With the Golden Arm ( ) The Hospital ( ) Knightriders (x) Gone With The Wind (x) The Way West ( ) The Buccaneer (x) Midsummers Night's Dream (1935) (x) MASH (x) Oh God Real Horror/Suspense (10) (x) Karloff's Frankenstein (x) Lugosi's Dracula ( ) Road Games (x) Rear Window (x) The Birds (x) Rebecca (x) The Haunting of Hill House ( ) Something Wicked This Way Comes (x) Westworld (x) Wait Until Dark Great Sci Fi (10) ( ) Omega Man ( ) Soylent Green (x) 2001: A Space Oddessy ( ) 12 Monkeys ( ) Battle Beyond the Stars (x) The Day The Earth Stood Still (x) War of the Worlds (original) (x) The Time Machine (x) Cocoon (x) Forbidden Planet Westerns (10) ( ) Silverado (x) The Searchers ( ) True Grit ( ) Cheyenne Autumn ( ) The Flaming Star ( ) The Magnificent 7 ( ) Stagecoach ( ) The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance ( ) Cat Ballou ( ) A Man Called Horse The Funny Stuff (10) (x) A Fish Called Wanda (x) Young Frankenstein (x) The Canterville Ghost (x) Bringing Up Baby ( ) It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (x) The Russians are Coming..
