I am a lover of classic films, particularly black-and-white ones. There's just something about them that reel me in. I've heard people say old films are better than newer ones but that is just a subjective opinion. Movies were good then and movies are good now. Here are some classic suggestions:
"Psycho" (1960)
GiphyMy all-time favorite movie. This film has made me enjoy horror films (even if this one isn't the most scary). I would consider it a psychological thriller that people should definitely watch.
"The Bad Seed" (1956)
GiphyAnother wonderful horror thriller movie dated back to the 1950s. I had to watch this movie for a class in high school and I'm glad I did. The actress who plays the main character did a wonderful job with her role.
"The Shining" (1980)
GiphyI promise this is the last horror movie on this list. The classic film is set in Colorado and sees Jack Nicholson play a character trying to get over writer's block, amongst other things. Definitely a must see.
"Planet of the Apes" (1968)
GiphyAs of writing this article, I watched this film for the first time last night (which sparked my interest in this article). It was a huge feat for the time as makeup and costumes took hours to put on. This film deserves all the credit it has received.
"Mary Poppins" (1964)
GiphyI only watched this film recently for the first time as well. This highly memorable movie set a precedent for musicals that continue to this day. Fun fact: Julie Andrews starred in "The Sound of Music" only one year after "Mary Poppins" playing a nanny in both films.
I admit that I'm not the biggest movie person but I still enjoy one from time to time. This list is a great selection to choose from to watch.
