Jaws... An incredible, incredible film that truly holds up. Although to be fair the buoyancy of the water helped here

As Eryk knows, since we're huge Hitch fans, I also love a ton of his other ones. A few that stand out: Rope, Strangers on a Train, Rear Window.
Rear Window is one of my favorite movies. Just one of the reasons is that when Grace Kelly first appeared on the screen, it took my breath away. I'll never forget that.

The original Invasion of the Body Snatchers is at the top of my list. Along with Forbidden Planet, I think those two works stand as the seminal movies of 1950's science fiction that went beyond their pulp/schlock roots.
Keep up with what I've been watching lately! "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you."

Forbidden Planet was one I'd always watch. Great sci-fi and there's a similarity to some of Shooter's Legion stories in that there are similarities between Forbidden Planet and The Tempest.
It would be a tough job comparing lady Legionnaire legs to Anne Francis' legs, but if someone has to volunteer...

All About Eve
Bette Davis was at her most fabulous. "Fasten your seatbelts, its going to be a bumpy night".
And I could actually sympathize with Eve, in spite of all the horrible things she did. To want fame and stardom that bad.... she was a victim of herself.

"Rear Window" is definitely tops on my Hitchcock list and a contender for my all-time favorite movie. "The Great Escape" is up there too. It's really hard to just pick one.

Love the Great Escape. Out of all those all-star cast type movies in the early and mid-60's, it was clearly the best with excellent performance after excellent performance.
They're all great but James Garner and Richard Attenborough steal the movie.
