Not Black and White, but has anyone seen a somewhat esoteric WWII movie titled “Hell in The Pacific” starring just TWO actors - Lee Marvin and Toshiro Mifune?  It’s a favorite of my family and is a way underrated movie IMHO. 

A great study in human nature, distrust, communication, cruelty, kindness, and cooperation.   

Funny, sad, cruel, encouraging, and melancholy all in one movie!

Saw it... Loved it.  Lee Marvin was not afraid to "step outside of the norm"....

Lee Marvin in "The Iceman Cometh"... FANTASTIC movie that is all pure acting... no action, no guns, no monsters or ghosts... just pure acting.  Try it sometime... could wake up your day on what ACTING is all about...
Opinion,untempered by fact,is ignorance.

There are some who do not fear death... for they are more afraid of not really living

I always wanted to get a falcon and then set up a pane of glass with Spade and Archer painted on it so that the sun could cast a shadow on the wall nearby....  Big Grin

Probably should have put “Psycho” on my list too. 

Chilling and of course quite well done.

And now I can't get a Highland Green Mustang GT without paying $10,000 more for it.
Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

After seeing this movie, and reading about Chinese Gordon in Khartoum, I was very glad to hear that Lord Kitchener went down to the Deep Six in 1916.......
