What’s your favorite black and white movie you would recommend?

Top | New | Old
Harvey starring James Stewart as a friendly eccentric who's family wants him committed because his best friend is a 6' tall invisible rabbit named Harvey. It's very funny. And I won't spoil the ending. One of my favorite movies.

@JonLosAngeles66 Harvey is fabulous. An overlooked great, and very funny, is Arsenic and Old Lace. There are lots of very well known B&W movies, picking out the overlooked or forgotten ones is the advice we're all looking for.

@NativePortlander1970 Very funny, but not B&W though.
@22Michelle i think he was just referencing the fact that it was another steve martin film...in a way it was a b&w film as navin was white and his family was black 🙂

@NativePortlander1970 I’m a fan too. Ever see Requiem for a Dream. Tremendously depressing but phenomenal acting by her and Leto. It takes place in my old stomping grounds so was extra special for me,
@4thdimensiondream I missed it
