Great films from the 60s or before that even!
|
I watched the Sound of Music for the first time in ages, sad i know but that Rodgers and Hammerstein could knock out a great tune,
also watched Cul De Sac over the weekend , fantastic and The Secret of Santa Vittoria, in which Anthony Quinn as Bombolini is really superbe and Its a Mad{x5} World, with a lot of recognisable faces and very very funny anyone out there got any other favourite 50+ years old that they still watch ?

but as The Swimmer was released in 1968 it doesn't qualify for this list of films that are over 50 years old....
So you'll just have to put up with some of this old rubbish instead:
Seven Samurai Vertigo Lawrence of Arabia The Third Man 12 Angry Men It's a Wonderful Life Citizen Kane The Bridge on the River Kwai The Wizard of Oz North by Northwest The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly The Life & Death of Colonel Blimp Andrei Rublev Ikiru Rear Window The Red Shoes Rashomon The Hidden Fortress Sansho the Bailiff Tokyo Story Samurai Rebellion Harakiri The Crucified Lovers
Oh the shame!

Nah, there's none. Can't think of a single one. All films before 1967 were shit.
like all football was shite before the Premier League.
Christ alive, what a revelation!
PS The Swimmer is an amazing film yes.

I've been watching an interesting documentary about Walt Disney. Obviously as a kid I saw some of the Disney stuff but watching this documentary it is quite mind boggling how a guy just decided that a feature length animated cartoon (Snow White) was the future. To see how much work this entailed is quite incredible especially considering that we are talking the 1930's here. Quite a visionary.

Humprey Bog art was a superb Actor..and Casablanca I have to say is a cracking film..as is Sierra Madre. Grew up watching these old black and white movies..at the time thought they were fucking Shit. .but you would at 10 rs old. Not so keen on Cagney films..loved Burton Lancaster and Robert Mitchum. Later on Paul Newman.
