Gotta give some love to Psycho and Rebecca. Also there was an old movie from the 40's called Cluny Brown. It was kind of a romantic comedy. Not sure why I like it, but for some reason, I really do.

[gsguy]

Frankenstein and City Lights are two that come to mind.

I agree with you on a lot of those movies. But I'd like to throw in a couple more.

Casablanca
The Maltese Falcon
Key Largo
My Man Godfrey
Nosferatu
The Phantom of the Opera
King Kong
Son of Kong
Mighty Joe Young


Oh man, there are a lot of movies that are classics that I have seen, but believe it or not, I've never seen Citizen Kane. It's on my list of movies to see, but the local video stores don't carry it, neither does the local Wal marts. I may have to purchase it online.
