Recommend Me Some Movies from the 1960s

Restarting this thread, i had a plan for a movie tonight but stuff got in the way. What should i watch next from the 60s, my lists (as in check-off lists) should be a decent indicator of what i've seen so far; outside of that just make a few suggestions.

Nostromos porn suggestions will be laughed off with a witty "i don't watch porn" remark (then watched before any other suggestions).

Camo have you seen PT 109 (1963). It's a pretty good telling of President Kennedy's famous PT story. I liked it quite a bit, it also has entertainment value as well.

I haven't CR, thanks for the suggestion. Weirdly for a non American i'm fairly familiar with JFK's WW2 life, i'll check it out .

watch all of godard's 60s films. and yojimbo.

Sci-Fi Slob & I are on a common wavelength... You won't be the same after Repulsion.

Anyway, Give the original Cape Fear with Robert Mitchum a try. Great flick.

Also, if you're feeling like more Mitchum maybe traverse backward into the 50's and watch Night of the Hunter if you haven't yet seen it.

Psyco and the apartment

I know you meant two different movies, but that would probably be a good title for a horror movie.

I'd recommend Onibaba if you haven't seen it yet.

What did you think of The Graduate? Did you like it? Do you like Hoffman?



It's one of my all time favorites. The music is great and genially incorporated into the film by Mike Nichols. The acting's also great. Although I do admit I don't actually fully understand it. What's the point? Mrs. Robinson thought he's not good enough for her daughter, so she even seduced or try to seduce him herself. Is that it?

Did you get to see Cool Hand Luke yet? It's one of my favorites. It's really unwined.

POSSIBLE SPOILERS

I especially like when he said "I can eat 50 eggs." and the whole process. And then George Kennedy (whom I love even more than Paul) says: "Why did you have to say 50? Why not 30 or 40?" And the beginning when he was sawing taximeters. And of course this famous scene with Joy Harmon:





I recommend Point Blank and Funny Girl because I'm not sure they have been recommonded before.

Have you seen Lolita yet? I know it's Kubrick, but it's after Vladimir Nabokov's novel and you might dig him especially if you care more about the story and characters than the director, which I seem to gather (so do I).

I think this is a good list:

Eh, it was okay. I'm kind of indifferent to Hoffman. He's done some great work but I'm not a fan and his presence in a movie won't sway my decision to watch it one way or the other.
Not sure if I understood the point either.

Technically I'd seen Cool Hand Luke when I was in high school, but I did rewatch it and enjoyed it.

I'm not so much looking for 60s recs, since that countdown has been over for awhile. Also not a Streisand fan. I may get around to those at some point, but these days I'm just watching whatever strikes my fancy, rather than focusing on any one decade, genre, topic, etc.

I had intended to watch Lolita before the 60s Countdown but never got to it. I'll probably eventually get around to it, but being a Kubrick film it's not a high priority for me.

Any Fellini or Ingmar Bergman

Does anyone understand the point in The Graduate? We need help.

Hey, do you like Paul Newman or George Kennedy then? Who's your favorite actress/actor? Mine's Alec Guinness. Do you like him? Well, I fell in love with Daisey Ridley when watching Star Wars, so she's my favortie actress. Otherwise Joan Cusack. Do you like those?

That I'm not a Babs fan, would be a big bang understatement. I'm afraid of her just like everyone else. She's also unbelievably arrogant. Once she said "I know what a director id. It's someone who acts when I have better buisiness," f*!

Look man, I couldn't agree more, it's imho the best film ever made. But be ware, BE WARE! That avatar isn't for nothing. She hates it. She hates many things, but especially 2001 and Kubrick. IMHO

I would like to go with below list

How To Steal A Million
The Swimmer
Lord of the Flies
Midnight Cowboy
Winter Ligh

Vertigo.

But isn't Vertigo from 1957?

I liked Bonnie & Clyde, but I haven't seen any of the other movies on your list, so I really can't compare any of the others.

I liked Midnight Cowboy, but I found Lord of the Flies rather depressing, especially the end, when Piggy has his glasses stolen from him, he's unable to get out of the way of the falling rock, and and ends up getting killed.
