    I've been watching some really old films recently, and for the most part i'm enjoying them.

    Plan nine from outer space.
    Treat it like the worst movie ever, but replace your disgust with laughter.
    It's so bad, it's so good.

    Casablanca & The Maltese Falcon & The Treasure of the Sierra Madre Humphrey Bogart is brilliant!
    Tod Brawning`s Freaks (1932) and listen to Marillion`s song Separated Out (they include a piece of film`s conversation into it) - horror
    Laughter in Paradise (1951) - comedy

    If you haven`t read Kill a Mocking Bird yet you`d better first watch a film. I was kinda disappointed with it, because it`s sort of book summary, some interesting plot lines were cut.

    Loved Metropolis. Loved Cat on Hot Tin Roof, loved the play itself, enjoyed acting out a monologue in an acting class. Loved Dr. Strangelove.

    Also recommend: Pandora's Box, La Dolce Vita, The Obscure Object of Desire, Un Chien Andalou, Nosferatu, Swann in Love, Diaries of a Chambermaid, Battleship Potemkin, Ivan the Terrible, China Town, Bladerunner, Mourning Becomes Electra, A Place in the Sun, The Virgin Spring, Cries and Whispers, The Flight, The Cranes Are Flying, and anything with Greta Garbo or Marlene Dietrich in it. I don't recommend old Lolita, it's unsatisfying.

    A short piece you can watch on youtube: Une robe d'ete.
