Yes, play by rules, people, or get out of my thread.

on the opposite end, pycho is a 1960 movie but it feels to me like the 50s

others:

a hard day's night

Z <-- costa gavras is practically ignored in the US

au hasard balthazar <-- bresson = genius

le mépris <-- fucking fuck!!!!!!!!!!1 the beauty of that film!!!!!!!!!11

&

faster pussycat! kill! kill!

(you gotta have awesome b movies)

&

branded to kill - b movie or art movie? whatever-- AWESOME


I don't zabriskie point (or some of the others you mention--I'm obviously deprived).

But yeah, A Hard Day's Night is classic. So is Psycho. I wish I could include North by Northwest, but that is sooo 50s. But it ranks right up there at probably # 2 or so, right after The Graduate, among my favorite movies.

I used to have a policy, since there are so many goddamn movies out therre, not to watch anything made before my birthday, an arbitrary cut-off date.

Now I just do not watch anything that is even remotely connected to ben affleck.

Midnight Cowboy
Take The Money And Run

I've always presumed that all of my favourite films were made in the '60s but, on closer inspection, they were made in the 1970s.

Repulsion too... great film.

And someone should make a film based on The Yellow Wallpaper... and then build a time machine, and release it in the '60s!
