Favorite 20-Yr Stretch of Movies?
 

1956-1976 is mine.

1983 - 2003

1971-1991

I have to go with this one too because the 1970's were my favorite decade of film.

Probably some point in the early/mid 60's to the early/mid 80's, taking in the end of the new wave, all of new Hollywood and then the start of the blockbuster era.

1962-82 or 1964-84

This is a hard one :goof:

Re: Favorite 20-Yr Stretch of Movies?
 

Early 70's to early 90's. Not sure about an exact year to start with. There's quite a few films I like from 73, so maybe I'd start there?

Re: Favorite 20-Yr Stretch of Movies?
 

I was also going to ask if you were born before, during, or after those years...


My answer: After

'72-'92 (born during)

1963 - 1983

Retracted, misunderstood the title :o

I'm fortunate (clever?) enough to have never done that long a stretch, longest I ever got was eighteen months and that was bad enough as the only movies we were allowed to watch were Shawshank, Always Outnumbered and Bambi.

1985 - 2005


But that leaves out so many great movies 😭 I just have to go with what I like to watch most 90s early 2000s.

I was born almost right in the middle

Am I allowed to add an extra month so I can get The Matrix and Avengers:Endgame in together?

Born before, 99 was my favourite year

Re: Favorite 20-Yr Stretch of Movies?
 

Mainly late 70s to late 90s.
I'd say 78-98 though there's a couple from just before and just after.

1982-2002, if you told me 25 years it would go in the other direction 1957-1982.

1932-1959

Re: Favorite 20-Yr Stretch of Movies?
 

I think If I go by the period of my favorite movies, i would have to say 1950-1969. I compiled a list of movies that I thought would show which movies I enjoyed during this period, and realized that there were numerous holes which I need to fill. There are just to many movies during this period that I know are classics that I have not seen. ( I have not seen Rebl Without a Cause or Giant for example. I was going to list all the movies, but I will just name some of the directors and writers I enjoyed from this period.

Tennessee Williams- Night of the Iguana, Streetcar Named Desire, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, (need to see more)

Ingmar Bergman- Through a Glass Darkly, Winter Light, Seventh Seal. (A few I have not yet seen)
Fellini- La Strada, Nights of Cabria, 8 1/2, La Dolce Vita, (More to See)

Hitchcock- Rear Window, Psycho, Strangers on a Train (More i have not seen)
M, Monsier Hulot's Holiday, On The Waterfront, Moby Dick, 12 angry men, T Kill a Mockingbird, Lawrence of Arabia, Dr Strangelove, Bedtime Story, A Shot in the Dark, The Pink Panther, A Man for All Seasons, The Graduate, Cool Hand Luke, The Odd Couple, and Midnight Cowboy. I think I have enough left over to fill my netflix cue for the next 6-8 months.
