Title: How many of these films have you actually watched?
Post by: RCMerchant on January 25, 2019, 08:20:05 PM
.DRACULA (1931)
.the MALTESE FALCON
.ON THE WATERFRONT
.GONE WITH THE WIND
.CASABLANCA
.the CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI (1919)

Myself- I have never seen Gone With the Wind or Casablanca.
I know folks who say they love Lugosi- but have never seen Dracula. I didn't either until 1992!
I seen all his other movies on TV as a kid! But I never saw Dracula!  :buggedout:

Never seen On the waterfront, Gone with the wind, The Cabinet of Dr Caligari (well not all in the one sitting. I've seen so many clips from it from over the years and studied the techniques involved in making it that I suspect I've seen it all piecemeal, just never from start to end).

All of them: Caligari is very creepy indeed.

ON THE WATERFRONT is great, I know you would like it.

I've seen Dracula, the Humphry Bogart version of The Maltese Falcon, Gone With the Wind, and the Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.

Dracula was too slow when I was in high school, but I appreciate it today.
The Maltese Falcon I enjoyed.
Gone With The Wind is good, but it should be split into two films, & you need an appreciation for soapy melodrama.
Caligari's good.

I've never seen GONE WITH THE WIND (all the way though) or ON THE WATERFRONT. Neither are high on my "to see" list.

The others are all classics.  :thumbup:

I tried to watch GONE WITH THE WIND- but it seemed to me like 1939 version of TITANIC.
Soap opera bulls**t. I reckon some folks like that kinda thing.More power to 'em!
Me, I like a little more thought, or a lot more guts or gore-or even some kinda non-conformist bravery.
That's why I like Bad Movies. Some may suck-in fact many suck. I just watched some s**t called TOMB OF TORTURE-

I liked it a lot! Of course I like peanut butter and baloney samwhiches, so what do I know! I can't even spell samwhich right!

It's odd that I've never seen CASABLANCA, because it stars 3 of the best actors of all time-Bogie,Lorre, and Veidt. Not to slight Ingrid Bergman and Claude Rains. I really need to see it.
Speaking of Bogie, it took me awhile to watch the AFRICAN QUEEN, but I'm glad I did. Great film.

All of them. In fact, I own all of  five of them, except The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.

I've never seen any of'em. I tend to concentrate mainly on movies from the 1960s to the present.

Nothin' against stuff older than that, but I don't go out of my way to investigate it either.

Your'e depriving yourself from what made films in the 60's on possible.
Crazy exploitation,unexpected off the wall obscure films, and great performances by great actors.

I've seen all of them multiple times. I own 4 of them on DVD of blu-ray:

DRACULA (1931)
The MALTESE FALCON
GONE WITH THE WIND
CASABLANCA

The first time I saw Caligari was on a local PBS station back in the 1970s. I loved it!

Me too! I saw  DR.MABUSE, THE GAMBLER on the same station-34 WSJV PBS out of Grand Rapids, around the same time too. And NOSFERATU. It was the only place you could see silent movies! Beyond a Harold Llyod show that was on Sunday morning on channel 22.

The PBS channel in my area (WGBH, Channel 2) also showed Nosferatu. In addition, they showed concert movies that were simulcast on a local FM radio station so you could listen in stereo! I remember watching Gimme Shelter and a few others. They showed Monty Python episodes, too, which I thought was cool because it was one of the few ways you could hear mild swearing like "bastard" on TV and see an occasional buttock or animated boobs.

Watched Casablanca over the weekend. Bits were slow, but overall a good movie. (Still have As Time Goes By stuck in my head.  :smile:)

only seen ON THE WATERFRONT and GONE WITH THE WIND.

studied ON THE WATERFRONT for A Level. the book and the film. by the time we'd finished the course I was sick of it, especially the "coulda been a contender scene

(we also had to watch and analyse CHILDS PLAY 3, scene by scene, which took about a month.)

Agree with Merchant that GONE WITH THE WIND is soap opera bs. it's just a 1930s chick flick, imo
