50 Best Classic Movies of All Time - Old Classic Films Everyone Should Watch
January 21, 2025 - For 1939, George Cukor’s The Women—about divorce, fashion and complicated female intimacies—was awfully forward thinking. Plus, no men have speaking roles in it! Starring Norma Shearer, Joan Crawford, and Rosalind Russell, The Women should be your next girls’ night movie selection (but feel free to skip the 2008 remake).

January 12, 2023 -

It seems like the bulk of every lists consists of movies released after the year 2000, with a few token classic like the Godfather or something.

Expand your horizons! If you supposedly don’t like black and white movies for whatever idiotic reason you don’t even have to go back that far. The 60s to the 80s were loaded with great stuff.

Any single year in the 1970’s blows out everything that’s came out in the last 20 years. For example I just put in a random year in google: 1974. We’ve got Texas Chainsaw, Blazing Saddles, Chinatown, The Conversation, Young Frankenstein, Godfather Part 2. And that’s without even digging into it.

The Great Movies (in alphabetical order)
This is a carefully planned list. Many factors are taken into account such as impact on history, audience reception, and importance in the world of film. But most of all I have considered my own personal taste. Now for those of you familiar with how I do things, you know that I used to keep this list in number order from favourite to least favourite; much like the American Film Institute’s 2007 list of 100 Greatest American Films of All Time.
