How about "The Birdman of Alcatraz" with Burt Lancaster and Karl Malden.
You should see To Kill a Mockingbird in its entitety!

I went to several film appreciation classes under the University of Nevada, Reno film critic Howard Rosenberg (not the LA one, there are two film critics with the same name!) and he presented a number of black and white classics on a fair sized screen at what was the MGM in Reno, Nevada. The movies should be seen on a big screen if at all possible and without distractions. Black and white movies look particularly good in the dark as it brings out the shadowing.

Liked Birdman of Alcatraz.
