1932 I Was Born But ... - Yasujiro Ozu
1934 It Happened One Night - Frank Capra

1936 The Only Son - Yasujiro Ozu
1941 Ornamental Hairpin - Hiroshi Shimizu
1942 Cat People - Jacques Tourneur
1943 The Ox-Bow Incident - William A Wellman
1955 Pather Panchali - Satyajit Ray
1957 Nights of Cabiria - Federico Fellini
1960 Naked Island - Kaneto Shindo
1964 Fail-Safe - Sidney Lumet
1969 The Sorrow & the Pity - Marcel Ophuls

Enjoy

thanx
great recommendations ! and i only saw 3 of them ( it happened one night - the ox-bow accident and nights of cabiria )

tons of great movies for 1964! Dr. Strangelove, Goldfinger, Mary Poppins....

1934: The Thin Man, It Happened One Night
1943: Day of Wrath
1960: Plein Soleil, Le Trou
1964: The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, The Leather Boys
1969: Army of Shadows, They Shoot Horses Don't They?

Why starting from 1925? Start from the very beginning. 1888.

Look, I'm not judging you - after all, I'm posting here myself, but maybe, just maybe, if you spent less time here and more time watching films, maybe, and I stress, maybe your taste would be of some value. Just a thought, ya know.

For 1955, I would recommend Marty, I'll Cry Tomorrow, and Love Me or Leave Me.

thanks everybody for the suggestions i will consider all of them

because i wanted it to be 90 movies so i could finish them before the end of summer !
maybe the next time

I would've chosen "The Big Parade" over "The Gold Rush" for 1925, but I am probably too partial to that film, anyway.

My recommendations for the years that haven't been filled in yet (based on your other choices):
1929 (not one of my favorite years in film) Pandora's Box
1930 All Quiet On the Western Front
1932 Freaks OR Grand Hotel
1934 It Happened One Night OR The Thin Man
1935 The Bride of Frankenstein
1936 Modern Times
1941 The Maltese Falcon
1942 The Pride of the Yankees OR Mrs. Miniver OR Now, Voyager
1943 Shadow Of a Doubt
1955 Rebel Without a Cause
1957 A Face In the Crowd
1960 Psycho
1964 Dr. Strangelove OR Hush..Hush, Sweet Charlotte
1969 The Wild Bunch

I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity - Edgar Allan Poe

i had to chose the gold rush because i postponed it so many times

great choices by the way, i already saw some of them, and i will certainly consider the others.

1969- Le Samourai

Start with that then send in a 60s list

Oh, I completely understand what you are saying when it comes to why "The Gold Rush" has to be the one to watch. I've done that many times with various films.

Yeah, I figured that there may be a chance that you would have seen a lot of what I suggested, but I figured that I might as well still mention them just in case.

When is your official start date that you are planning on watching these?
