treeduck Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 QUOTE (softfilter @ Dec 30 2006, 02:50 PM) Raging Bull, Robert De Niro. Don't know if anyone mentioned it yet but it's definitely a black and white classic. Well although the majority of the film is black and white there are some colour segments which is why I didn't mention it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great movie! saw this 2days ago for the 1st time. peter sellers is a damn genius Peter Sellers was also set to play Major T.J. King Kong but broke his ankle or leg, so Kubrick cast Slim Pickens instead. I read that Kubrick wanted Sellers to connect all the locations in the film - The War Room, The Army Base and The B-52. George C. Scott was also brilliant. There are many memorable lines: "Mr. President, I'm not saying we wouldn't get our hair mussed. But I do say no more than ten to twenty million killed, tops. Uh, depending on the breaks." "You're gonna have to answer to the Coca-Cola company." "Shoot, a fella' could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff." Gosh, there are so many.

Weakly Criminal Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 QUOTE (lerxt1990 @ Dec 19 2006, 07:09 PM)Can I recommend two lighter films? The Apartment with Jack Lemmon Great flick! Really cutting edge for the time, and very funny. Who knew Shirley McLaine was so hot? I would also recommend Roman Holiday with perhaps the most beautiful woman ever, in her most adorable role, Audrey Hepburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lerxt1990 Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 Also, from another thread, let me recommend Twelve Angry Men. Its a REAL good film with an unusually outstanding cast. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050083/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Apartment with Jack Lemmon and The Odd Couple with Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. While The Odd Couple is not a black and white film.... I still must take my opportunity to chime in and say it's one of the funniest movies ever made. When Jack Lemmon is trying to clear his throat in the diner, is one of the hardest laughs I've ever had to recover from. I used to have that sound byte linked in my sig. I have to try and get that going again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pags Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 If you like comedies - some of the old Martin and Lewis films are sensational. My favorite in particular, is Scared Stiff. Their best one, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
