fool 4 luv 172 Posted June 12, 2017 My grandmother and I sit on the couch about once a week, and we watch old films together. Our favorites are With Six You Get Eggroll, By The Light of the Silvery Moon, Where The Boys Are, The Birds, and as I mentioned above Rear Window. This is most wholesome thing i've ever heard omg one thing my grandma gave me is a love for the movie White Christmas - it's a "christmas movie" but honestly it's SO GOOD u can watch it any month of the year heh heh 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beautiful Loser 48,613 Posted June 12, 2017 I really like the old Pink Panther movies, a favourite of them is "The Return Of The Pink Panther". Other movies with Peter Sellers such as "After The Fox" and "The Party" are good too, especially "The Party" if you wanna enjoy 60's fashion. "The battle of the sexes" is a goodie too and perhaps less known. 1 Quote LANABOARDS DEMOGRAPHICS SURVEY 2024 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miss Honeydew 615 Posted June 12, 2017 Stakeland (A good vampire horror) Heavy (a pretty grim 90's flick about an overweight boy with a mental disorder) Suckerpunch (dont know if this counts as old bc its from 2011, but its one of my favorite movies of all time) Kill Bill Vol. 1 & 2 The Resident Evil Saga Insidious 1 OMG I adore Sucker Punch so much. Despite the fact that it's critically panned, there's a deep story. The extended version makes perfect sense tbh. It's beautifully shot and Emily Browning is a goddess 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kittren 209 Posted June 19, 2017 What is old in this case? Anyways: Roman Holiday Breakfast at Tiffany´s (I am a big Audrey stan) My fair lady The money pit Dirty Dancing Look who´s talking American Beauty Lolita Any old Disney movie (The little mermaid, The Lion King, Pocahontas, Anastasi etc) American History X That is all what came to my mind. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DLT 7,592 Posted June 19, 2017 I watched a really good one I had never seen yesterday, Bonjour Tristesse. It was very good and def worth watching if you haven't. Btw idk who all is a huge Audrey fan but Audrey is TCMs star of the month so every Monday night they are playing Audrey movies. Halfway through the month I know but I believe they are playing three more tonight. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like Audrey but i've never been like, a mega fan like some people i knew, so i thought i would be underwhelmed by breakfast at tiffany's but I LOVE IT SO MUCH. that and Charade are my two fave Audrey films 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VeryCherryBalm 427 Posted June 27, 2017 I watched Breakfast at Tiffany's for the third time last night omg it just gets better with every watch If anyone has any other recommendations for great Audrey films let me know! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jvcx 3,644 Posted June 28, 2017 My childhood favorite Mary Poppins, Julie Andrews is a national treasure tbh. The iconic Hitchcock masterpiece also known as The Birds which I got on blu-ray earlier this year and the best musical I've ever seen (if you don't count in Mamma Mia! starring the goddess Meryl Streep ofc ), also known as Grease Name a musical song more iconic than You're the One That I Want, I'll wait. Edit: Oh and Foul Play, it's from 1978 but I'm counting it in because I can 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terrence Loves Me 72,644 Posted June 28, 2017 I love Audrey but i've not enjoyed any of her movies at all BAT was terribly boring i'm sorry. Roman Holiday was okay though, and i think i saw one where she played a nun once too But yeah, she's beautiful so that's cool 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
