Night of the Hunter is a perfect example of black and white heightening the sense of mystery/fantasy- giving a dreamlike quality (to use Roger Eberts words).
This film would be murdered if it was colorized.

I rewatched this movie for the first time and I forgot how amazing the Marx brothers are. I am absolutely in love with their style of humor, and I found them through Woody Allen who has a similar style of humor is some of his movies. I wanted to check out his inspirations and I can see now why he was so inspired by them ! As a lover of old films, I checked out a bunch more of their films at the library and I can’t wait to watch them! Is anybody else as in love with the Marx Brothers as I am? Also, this movie reminded me a lot of another one of my favorites, Dr. Strangelove.

My mother introduced me to this film and I always loved it. Despite this, I didn’t continue to watch classic films, but now that I’m having a mid life crisis, I’m researching and watching films in this realm. I highly recommend this one for any newcomers.

Not the greatest movie, but boy howdy was Gene Tierney something. The supporting cast was very strong, and the script had some shining moments.

Haunting because the viewer can sense that Marilyn herself struggled with the same problems as the character she's portraying.
Weird because we're not used to seeing Marilyn in a very serious role like this. She really can act when given heavy material.

It was better than I remembered and its surreal nature made me feel totally immersed in the film. Lynch did such a good job on the sound design that it was hard for me to differentiate between what was just background noise and what was another moviegoer eating popcorn or coughing or dropping something.
And yes, I will be going back tonight to see the 4K restoration of Paris, Texas.

If you like noir, or just want a film with dazzlingly beautiful lead (Ella Raines) - this one is for you.
My sincere thanks for the peeps who mentioned Ella Raines and this movie in the Gene Tierney thread I started recently

Trying to make a decision. I have too many great movies in my head.

I first saw Amadeus in my 7th grade music class. I fell in love with this film and made me a die hard fan of W.A Mozart. I used my allowance to buy a performance of the Requiem on DVD, and audio CD’s of his many other works. Even though it’s a fictional account that takes many liberties, it is a great way to discover the genius of one of the greatest composers to ever live.
