During this isolation, I would be interested in suggestions of great movies you like.


please suggest films you feel are worth, actually very worthy, of watching now?  Looking for very good and intelligent films.  As far as ones that simply pass the time, that will be for another day.  I may have the most interest in any classics I may have missed.....you know, films like 'Howdy Doody, Man or Myth"...and "Sex and the Single Dentist".

Thanks to all for your thoughts/feelings. 

Both of my sons work in "film", both have taught on the subject at state universities......seems taking them to great films at various theaters in their youth did sink in.  The town I lived in had 2, and sometimes 3, independent "art" theaters and offered the chance to take my sons to films that were beyond special effects and explosions.


And I do have some that people will Po-Po......likely the most Po would come when I admit I like Steve McQueen films.  McQueen and Newman in the "Towering Inferno" is commercial trash....and I have watched a half dozen time...including on release.  And I can still watch Dracula, Frankenstein and others with pleasure.

Perhaps another thread on movies we like and probably shouldn't?
