I enjoy watching old movies, but not ones that are this old. When I watch very old movies, I feel like I can't relate to the era and I don't understand them. It's hard to remember right now which is the oldest movie I've watched, but it might be The Godfather. Speaking of that movie, you made a good choice as New Year's is approaching; my wife likes movies with that concept, so I'll recommend giving it a watch :)

I get what you are saying, some of them however do hold up like this one. The godfather is from 1972, You've probably also have seen The Sound Of Music (1965) and maybe The Wizard Of Oz (1939).

I still need to watch the godfather myself, once started it with a friend but it didn't instantly capture us so we moved on and I never went back to it since. The old movie I plan on watching next year is Vertigo (1958), I've only heard good things about that one.

I’m all about old movies! Black & White era!
And my fav TV show is the original Twilight Zone (1059-1964). I was born in early to mid eighties, I’m only 40, but I just love the older stuff!

I'm 43 so around the same age. I haven't watched too many of them yet and they are somewhat of a hit or miss. I didn't really like Sullivan's Travels or Citizen Kane (both from 1941) but absolutely loved 12 Angry Men, It's a wonderful life, the wizard of oz, Rope, The Shop around the corner. So I would say they have a very high ratio and I'm looking forward as there are a ton more I have yet to see.

the original original Twilight Zone always intrigued me but I never watched any those.

Oh man! You gotta watch the original Twilight Zone! Especially first three seasons! About 90 plus episodes. I’d say 85 outta ninety something and pure gold! It was canceled and then came back for season 4 and 5 and frankly lost some of the magic with many of the writers & show runner already finding new gigs after being canceled then brought back 5 months later but first three seasons are golden! !LADY !PIZZA
