Do you love the golden oldies?

Google says:
"Classic films are so enduring that they connect with audiences on a deep emotional level. Despite being made decades ago, these films still resonate with people today. The themes of love, loss, and tenacity are timeless and transcend the boundaries of time and space."

This is true. But anything with Burt Lancaster in is a bonus for me.

Probably top of my classic oldies is Casablanca

@Ceitidh Yep! Talking about my age - I remember when the very first Maccy D's opened in London lol

@ArtieKat "Play La' Marseille. I said play it!"

You can tell when a scene is so movingly good it gets ripped off in other films. (Copied in Escape to Victory).

@ArtieKat I love their banana milkshakes.

Been thinking about this...i think Hollywood lost the plot when they started relying on car chases and explosions rather than acting and plotting and the script.
Love a good oldie.

Yes - though some are a lot more "golden" than others.

Love old movies.

I'm more of a Dr Strangelove myself. Classics never really pervaded my sphere of interests. I'd need a girl willing to watch them honestly.

I can't be convinced they weren't made just for that purpose... If I'm honest with you...

How far do we have to go back for a movie to be considered a 'golden oldie'? Obviously it has to be good hence the 'golden' bit (am I over thinking this?)

@GeniUs You're definitely over thinking!!

Golden Oldies are the best. Or else they wouldn't have stood the test of time.

One of my favourite westerns stars Burt.

I’d forgotten how handsome he was. From Here To Eternity was my favorite with him. 😊
