Blazing Saddles. I realize it is incredibly non PC if you think about it too literally.

Wait, this might be the 80's?

Why? I am a high school teacher, and some of my students are really interested in films and know a lot about old movies. The Razor's Edge ( the original) is great.

Arsenic and Old Lace, Bringing Up Baby and The Philadelphia Story are three of my favorites.

Dirty Dozen poster her - I love all of those as well (or really just about anything with Cary Grant). And for the 50 and over poster, I am 38 and have loved old movies since I was a teenager. I married someone who feels the same way about old movies, so 90% of the stuff we watch is older than we are They just don't make movies like that anymore. Almost everything that comes out today is a remake of something else (or a remake of a remake). Can't people come up with original ideas anymore?

I really hate old movies though. I mean, I love those, and a few others (West Side Story...yeah, that might be it). I cannot stand the acting from the old days. It is so weird to me.

Great Escape. Love that movie (and I'm 41).

Adam's Rib and Desk Set are some of my favorite Tracy/Hepburn movies.
And I loved the adaptation of To Kill a Mockingbird.
An American in Paris is my favorite musical (close second is The Sound of Music but I also love My Fair Lady).
