I’m also a fan of the old movie classics.

Action/Adventure
1. Raiders of the lost Ark – Non-stop action. Truck scene was incredible.
2. Terminator 2 – Special effect were awesome.

Drama:
1. The Best Years Of Our Lives- Federick March, Myrna Loy, Teresa Wright and Dana Andrews. Some would argue the best film made re Bette Davis.
2. Dodsworth – Walter Huston, father of John Huston, the famous director and Ruth Chatterton. A little known film from the 30’s. Going to be shown on TCM, Saturday at 8 PM, 6/4/11.

Crime
1. The Godfather I and II – It’s really a story about a family. Godfather II – the only sequel to win an Academy award.
2. The Thin Man – William Powell and Myrna Loy.

Romance:
1. Casablanca – Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman - the most famous quotes in a movie.
2. When Harry Met Sally – Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan – “I’ll have, what she’s having”.

Westerns:
1. The Unforgiven – Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman. - Bar scene at end is the best.
2. Stagecoach – John Wayne.

Horror:
1. Pyscho – Janet Leigh and Anthony Perkins
2. Frankenstein and Wolfman movies – scary when I was a lad.

Sports:
1. Pride of the Yankees – Gary Cooper and Teresa Wright.

War:
1. They were Expendable – John Wayne and Donna Reed.

Comedy:
1. Grumpy Old Men – Jack Lemmon and Water Matthau.
