What's considered old? I consider old to be mid 60s and earlier, others may think Ghostbusters to be an old movie.

It's a Wonderful Life is a favorite of mine too- a staple around the holidays every year of my lifetime - passed that tradition on to my kids- they complained a year or two and now Christmas isn't the same without that movie.

I believe the movie's copyright expired, or something like that, and that allowed for anyone to market the movie on video, or show it on TV, if I understand copyright law right.

True story - fall of 1988 at A&M, one night the roommates and I were drinking lots of beer, and we were scanning the TV channels for something to watch. We happened upon a black-and-white, obviously old, shot of a couple of galaxies and some little star comes flying in and starts talking. We all gave each other a WHAT-THE-F***-IS-THIS look and kept watching, and despite all the drinking, I really liked what I saw that night. Really good, emotional movie, and it has been in my family's viewing tradition for a very long time.

Edit: Mr. & Mrs. Smith (1941) - not a great film by any stretch of the imagination but it is fun to see Alfred Hitchcock do something besides a suspense film and I like Carole Carole Lombard which reminds me to add .To Be or Not to Be.

And one more, Sullivan's Travels

Cool Hand Luke
Cat On a Hot Tin Roof
The Hustler

Honestly, I would watch a 30 year old Paul Newman read the phone book and be grateful for the chance.

The Godfather is my favorite movie of all time and is probably officially an "old" movie

My guess is that Beachbabe's premium account is about to expire and she doesn't realize that she can continue posting on the non premium boards.
