a few people got confused with my other post where i asked Bruce Willis (i said BW and people thought it meant black and white) so it thought why not make a thread of black and white movies (after reading somebody's reply)? what are your favorites?
i seldom watch b/w movies.

Three Stooges and Marx Brothers movies oh and Young Frankenstein and Clerks

Really? People thought it was a thread for B&W movies? I gotta check that out. :lol:

It's A Wonderrful Life
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington
High Noon

The greatest movie ever made IMHO (also featuring my all-time fave actor, Bogart), i like Cassablanca, but, I love this film-noir about a handful of buddies who go prospecting together, find a rich cache of gold and slowly turn on each other, when feelings of greed and paranoia set in

Buster Keaton did his own stunts, and was nearly killed filming one scene, in what is the greatest silent comedy ever made. Buster stars as a southern engineer, who's train , the General, is stolen by northern soldiers during the Civil war and who steals another train to get it back.....it features one of the most compelling and longest "chase" scenes in the history of cinema. (its based on a true story)

Nosferatu

I seldom watch b/w movies.

I seldom watch color movies.

A few favorites:

To Kill a Mockingbird
12 Angry Men
Dr. Strangelove (Or How Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb)
Carnival of Souls
Invasion of the Body Snatchers
D.O.A
It's a Wonderful Life
Strangers On a Train
Young Frankenstein
Psycho

"I'm ready for my closeup, mr Demille!!!" is the most famous line from this psychological thriller about a former silent film star who longs to make a comeback on the Silver screen, with the help of a young giggilo/writer who winds up drowned in her swimming pool, for his efforts.

Nosferatu
Good choice, not in my top 10, but, great if you like creepy movies! :cow: yup yup

Yes the animation is wonky, KK goes from 50 to 100 feet high depending on the scene, the story is corny, but........This film has stood the test of time as a watershed in the genre! (I never watched the remake last year, dont NEED to!)

My fave film from my fave silent movie comedian, Harold Lloyd; Harold plays a cab driver who is recruited to run a trolley for the night for the ailing father of the woman he loves (from afar); a rival company has sent thugs to try and close them down, by whatever means necessary ;(If the trolley doesnt complete its rounds, then the old man would have to forfeit his trolley license)...or course, Harold dispatches the bad guys (As you can see from the pic......He did all his own stunts, btw)) and wins the girl!

(that's my top 5.....ill post the rest of my top 10 later!)

I love KING KONG too. My daughter bought me the DVD. It is the restored version with the scenes that have been deleted for television. I love it that way.

I may have to look some up to refresh my memory...the first one that came to mind is 13 Ghosts (1960). http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0053559/

I love KING KONG too. My daughter bought me the DVD. It is the restored version with the scenes that have been deleted for television. I love it that way.
Yup, thats the version to get...KK eating and stomping the natives, plus the scene where KK drops an innocent woman to her death, on the streets of NY, when he realises its not the woman hes been searching for! Deleted from the movie forever is a scene that was only shown ONCE, at the previews...when the sailors dropped into the canyon off the giant log bridge, they were originally eaten by a giant spider at the bottom; preview audiences were so upset by it (several women fainted, apparently), that they deleted this scene and burned it!

Here is some more info on KK:

The original version was released four times between 1933 and 1952, and each release saw the cutting of additional scenes. Though many of the outtakes - including the censored sequence in which Kong peels off Fay Wray's clothes - were restored in 1971, one cut scene has never been found. It is the clip in which Kong shakes four sailors off a log bridge, causing them to fall into a ravine where they are eaten alive by giant spiders. When the movie - with spider sequence intact - was previewed in San Bernardino, Calif., in late January, 1933, members of the audience screamed and either left the theatre or talked about the grisly sequence throughout the remainder of the film. Said the film's producer, Merian C. Cooper, "It stopped the picture cold, so the next day back at the studio, I took it out myself". Recently, there have been rumors that the reason why the scene was cut was because it slowed down the film too much and didn't tie into the main story of Kong pursuing Ann. Peter Jackson and the crew at WETA "reconstructed" and re-shot the scene for the Warner R1 DVD using duplicates of the original stop motion models, the shooting script, and various storyboards. The sequence also includes the sailors running from an enraged triceratops.


Other than the sequence where Kong pulls Fay Wray's clothes off, here are the other scenes that were cut in the late '30s, and not restored until the '70s:
All scenes of the Brontasourus biting sailors, including the sequence where a sailor climbs to the top of a tree, and soon, a dinosaur comes and takes him away in his mouth.
Kong biting and chewing natives when he breaks through the gate on Skull Island, and squashing one under his giant foot.
Kong biting a New Yorker when he escapes from the theater.
Kong picking a sleeping woman from her hotel room, inspecting her and upon deciding that she's not Ann throwing her to the sidewalk several stories below. Though these scenes were fully restored in 35mm to the 1972 re-release, some prints in the 1960s used 35mm blow-ups of an old uncensored 16mm print to restore the shots, creating a noticeable drop in quality. The 1972 restoration gets the censored shots that were discovered in an uncut British 35mm print from 1933.

I have serveral B&W favorites btw, I was first fooled by the BW title too. LOL.

1. Boys Town
2. Huck Finn with Mickey Rooney
3. The original Champ
4. The Big Street my favorite Lucille Ball film, pairing her with Henry Fonda.
5. Whatever Happened To Baby Jane
6. All About Eve
7. Sorry Wrong Number
8. Double Indemnity
9. It's A Wonderful Life
10. Mildred Pierce

Believe it of not, this 6 year old with the angelic face would one day play Uncle Fester on the 60s version of the Adams Family! In the Kid, the tramp finds an orphaned boy and teaches him the "tools of the trade" that a tramp needs to know........only to have the authorities do their best to take the boy away! (I won't give away the ending, it has to be seen!)

No need to recap this one, if you've never seen it at Xmas time, then watch it this year! nuff said!

While they took some liberties with the story (like Making "Fan" (Fanny), Scrooge's older sister, instead of younger) and changed or transposed some character names
(Scrooge's Fiancee Belle becomes Alice and the names of the maid and washerwoman are reversed), this is nonetheless the very BEST version of "A Christmas Carol" as it goes deep into Scrooge's psyche as no other version ever did....it remains the best dramady ever filmed

Now how did that littlr boy grow up to be ugly Uncle Fester LOL

Harold Lloyd's biggest success, this is the achetype of the "Mr. Nobody goes to college, joins the football team, hoping to be a hero, becomes the benchwarmer/waterboy, then finally gets his chance, in the "Big Game"" movie.
Yes this sounds like a comedy cliche but, Harold did it FIRST, and best!

Now how did that littlr boy grow up to be ugly Uncle Fester LOL
It's called Aging ;) His name was Jackie Coogan, btw.

So...does that mean The Waterboy is a remake of this? :eek:

Shown here is Jackie Coogan over several periods of his life.....the 3rd to last pic is Coogan at the time he was playing Fester, and the last pic, was taken shortly before the end of his life.

LOL he sure changed!

Another one of my favorites would be the original House On Haunted Hill from 1959. The last picture I've attached is of the Ennis House, which was used for exterior shots of the house, as it stands today...
Great pics Bill.....I love the way the house looked onscreen compared to in real life

Except for his CHIN...its the same his whole life! :lol:
LOL

It Happened One Night (1934) and Kitty Foyle (1940)

It's very unlikely that the house was used , other than in exterior scenes, especially back in those days.

Another Bogart film, and likely the most obscure film on my list. In this film, Bogart plays 3rd banana to George Raft and Ida Lupino (He was still up and coming at the time), but, steals much of the film. The movie is about how the evil Lupino seduces the married Raft character into commiting a murder, then leaves him out to dry, Bogart plays his loyal truck driving partner-brother, who tries in vain to stop him, before he throws away his life.

Films that didnt make my top ten, but, were wonderful B&W films, nonetheless

The Wizard Of Oz (1939)
I'm not sure if this movie would be counted or not since it was shot half in black and white and half in color. Regardless, it was a great movie.

I can't believe I forgot to add It's A Wonderful Life!! It's become a tradition to watch it every Christmas Eve. I always bawl every time I watch it. It's a WONDERFUL FILM!! :D

THE BRAIN THAT WOULDN'T DIE!! One of my fave horror movies growing up. Here is what is said on the DVD cover:

A mad scientist accidentally decapitates his pretty fiancée in a car accident and then rushes her head to his secret laboratory to keep it alive. Needing a replacement body for his beloved, the doctor visits various strip-clubs and girlie shows in order to pick just the right body for his needs. Meanwhile, the revived head is conspiring with a grunting thing that is locked away in the doctor’s closet, seeking revenge on her boyfriend. (1962, b&w)

I also love the great cheesy monster B-flicks that were churned out in the 1950s and early 1960s. Who can forget that great masterpiece (:lol:), 1957's The Giant Claw??

Oh, I was hoping someone would mention Buster Keaton! I absolutely adore him! He is absolutely my favorite actor from the silent era (I thought Charlie Chaplin had nothing on him!)

But in terms of my favorite b&w movie, it's really no contest. *Points to avatar* The Best Years of Our Lives. It was actually the first black and white movie I'd watched all the way through, if you can believe it. I must have been nine or ten. It's been my favorite movie of all time ever since - and I swear to you, it has mysterious healing powers. I had the flu the first time I saw it - by the time it was over, presto! No flu!

That thing is ridiculously huge! You know, what's even funnier is the fact that this came out over 20 years after King Kong and yet the special effects didn't improve one bit! :lol:

It is BETTE DAVIS in the front. Joan Crawford plays her sister. Great movie.

:lol:

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? :eek: One of the great classics.

Yeah, that is a pretty creepy movie. Especially the scene where Joan Crawfood serves Bette Davis a dead rat on a platter. :eek:

Too many to mention, but here are a few offa the top of my head:


His Girl Friday - Old skool movie dialogue so quick & full of wit, that despite any dated slants in the material, comes off sounding contemporarily sharp & filled with as much energy as if it were written for today.

Roman Holiday - 80% of the success of this movie's depiction of romance is just a result of Audrey Hepburn's presence, alone.

Wolfman - Just a plain ol' classic, this one is right there. I'm am a Huge fan of the original black & white Universal Monster series of way back in the day. Any datedness from these original gangstas of horror seemed to be fade with the integrity of the energy that was captured in the filming. I'm really looking forward to what they're gonna do with the the Benicio Del Toro adaptation. I was really glad that they didn't get him to look like the more wolf than man make-up that has become the standard for today. I still think that the modern look is cool an' all, but it doesn't need to be limited to one style. Despite the push that Hollywood has given movies like these as just empty escapist fare, the reality is, on a integral level, they're still an artform & thus should never be limited by any type of boxed labels.

Dracula - I don't care what any of you might think of the old Count, he's the O.G. of bloodsuckers, suckas. If it weren't for him, Count Chocula cereal would just be called Chocolate Flavored Cereal Wit' Chocolate Flavored Marshmellows In It.
So pay 'em his due propers.
Suckas.

Frankenstein - What Dracula did for Count Chocula cereal, the Frankenstein monster did for Frankenberries.
Suckas.

The Man Who Wasn't There - A modern movie in B W ( not Bruce Willis...) in which Billy Bob's performance is really great, as usual, the Coen's script is awesome, as usual, James Gando is cool, as usual & Scarlet Jo is just downright gorgeous. As usual.

Recently, I watched (again) "The Mummy" (1932) on DVD. Boris Karloff
has to be one of the most underrated actors in the history of cinema. If ever
an actor deserved an honorary Oscar, he paid his dues.

So you've seen The Birds in black & white too? I was gonna post this because I distinctly remember seeing it in black & white as a kid, but for some reason the versions I've bought on both VHS & DVD are in color. Everything I've read about it online says that it was released in color as well, so now I'm really confused, but I would sure love to find the black & white version!

^ I remember seeing it black & white too when I was a kid. But when I rented a copy of it at the video store, it was in color.

So strange...there must be a black & white print out there somewhere. If I ever find a copy of it, I'll be sure to let you know!

^ Ok, thanks!

One movie I forgot to mention is 1965's A Patch of Blue!! Oh my, what a beautiful story, fantastic acting (Shelley Winters won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress), and impeccable production values. I can't recommend it highly enough.

1. Scrooge aka A Christmas Carol (1951)- Alastair Sim is the one and only Scrooge as he sets the precedent for all others in his dynamic performance.
2. Miracle On 34th Street(1947) - such a warm, lighthearted movie. By the end you really do believe in Santa Claus. Only complaint: I wish John Payne and Maureen O'Hara had more screen time together. Small bit of trivia: John Payne wrote a sequel but could not get backing :( I would have atleast like to read his script.
3.Sentimental Journey(1946)- John Payne and Maureen O'Hara star in this tearjerker that was made a year before Miracle On 34th Street. I loved them together as an onscreen couple. This was one of Maureen O'Hara's favorite movies she made. another film in the public domain and not yet available on dvd.
4. A Streetcar Named Desire(1951) - Vivien Leigh, so beautiful yet so tragic in the role that supposedly "tipped her into madness" as she put it herself once.
5,6&7. Inspector Hornleigh; Inspector Hornleigh On Holiday; Inspector Hornleigh Goes To It (1939-1941) -very funny!!! Almost a precursor to the Naked Gun films with Alastair Sim as the bumbling, inept detective. and as far as sequels go, which there weren't many back in the early days, each one is better and better. They should have made more! This trilogy is truly a treasure.(Say that 3 times fast!) Wish they'd release it on dvd commercially.
8. Green For Danger (1946) - Really good Alastair sim movie (are you sensing a theme here?). His performance is brilliant and the plot is fastpaced and intriguing but light and easy to follow. Its a good old fashioned whodunit murder mystery mixed with wit and humor that goes by too fast!!
9. The Miracle Worker - so inspiring and uplifting. love it!

I've been watching some of the Blondie movies from 1938-1950 since I found the DVD set in the library. They are very amusing, and endure mostly because of the chemistry between Penny Singleton (later on, the voice of Jane Jetson) and Arthur Lake as Blondie and Dagwood. :love:
