Recommend me some classic movies

[Cyrus]

Anyone fans of classic, old, film-noir movies from the 40's, 50's and 60's? I'm talking about movies like Casablanca, 12 Angry Men and Breakfast at Tiffany's.

Anyone know of any good romantic or dramatic black & white movies?

No........

Call me cynical but I really cant be bothered watching B&W films on my
colour TV

Bad Day at Black Rock

That's another great film, not sure it its within Cyrus's categories, but it does contain excellent character acting and film photography
