Wife and I watched the original Carrie tonight.
"North by Northwest" and "Bridge on the River Kwai" are two we can watch again and again.
Wow... Just wow. Why not? Just lack of exposure?Quote:

Probably one of the most quotable movies was a pre-80's film and one of my favorites....

Then I suppose black and white is COMPLETELY out of the question. :cool:
Yeah, probably for him. But War of The Worlds was terrific in black & white. And all of the film noir crime stuff just wouldn't be right in color.Quote:
