And now let's have some movies you love that are older than you are. Can you name four?

I’m 50. When I was little, I used to love Abbott and Costello movies.

I’d say my ultimate favorite old movie is The Yearling. Lassie Come Home is another great one. Also Disney cartoons like Dumbo, Lady and the Tramp, Snow White, Cinderella.

If you’re into animal movies, or are a fan of Gregory Peck and/or want to see some Florida landscape from the 1940’s, see The Yearling.

Has anybody seen Pinhead?

I’m 21, and most movies I like are older than me. Would you belive that many of my favorite movies are nearly three times as old as me?

Some of them are:
– The Asphalt Jungle
– The Postman Always Rings Twice
– In a Lonely Place
– The Night of the Hunter

It’s just strange that I’m so drawn to old-timey stuff.

Adam’s Rib
Psycho.
Rebecca.
Singing in the Rain.

I grew up watching some of those oldies on the television on Saturday and Sunday afternoon. There are so many I’ve really loved. Many Hitchcock films, many of the old musicals.

There are no movies twice as old as I am.

The Navigator, City Lights, Safety Last, and Sunrise are my favorite silent films.

@kritiper My mother chose my middle name from Ivanhoe, it is Rowena.

Quite frankly most of what’s already been listed above by others.
I love the old Bette Davis movies and Hitchcock, Rebeca and other old B&W film noir type films. I also love old John Wayne, Henry Fonda and Kirk Douglas films. Old Bela Lugosi is good too.

Oh yeah, also:

The Man in the White Suit
Captain Horatio Hornblower

The Sound of Music
Westside Story
Mary Poppins

I see a pattern here.

The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928, silent)
Magnificent Ambersons (1942)
Freaks (1936)
Dinner at Eight 1933)

I could name many others. I’m a big fan of movies of the ‘30s and ‘40s

Pinocchio, Fantasia, The Birth of the Blues, and The running horse is nearly twice as old as I am (birthday, Jan. 30,1943) and one of my favorite historical “movies”.

Have not yet read the other answers, will do so affer posting.

Singing In The Rain

The Little Princess

The Wizard of Oz

Psycho

Snow White

I’m 34, and essentially I could cheat because I really love old black and white horror movies. There’s something special and magic about them. I own about 100 of them, always looking for more. So if I leave those out, amd add only one zombie movie, maybe my list of faves will be more diverse.

Dawn of the Dead. (1978)
Again that movie pops up. I don’t think I need to tell you what my favorite zombie movie is.

Nosferatu (1979 remake)
Quite possibly the most “artsy” vampire movie I’ve ever seen. I love the beginning when they show the Carpathian mountains. (not actually filmed there)

Alien 1979
Not a science fiction fan, but this plays a lot more like a slasher movie.

Eraserhead 1977
I know, it’s the popular movie for people who like weird disturbing stuff, people love to tell me this. I don’t care. I love it to death.

Werewolf Woman (1972, Italy)
8 and ½ (Italy, ?)
Rashomon (1950, Japan)
The 7 Samurai (1954, Japan)

Psycho
Singing in the Rain
Gentleman Prefer Blondes
The Wizard of Oz
The Sound of Music
Mary Poppins

They Died With Thier Boots On, Union Pacific, Lives of a Bengal Lancer. Mostly old Errol Flynn westerns or Gary Cooper actioners from the 1930s.

Duh- you said 4, so here is my number 4, “Western Union”. Another 1930s or 40s western. Think it had Randolph Scott in it but not sure. Haven’t seen that one in awhile. Classic oater about setting up the telegraph system across the continent, complete with rampaging Indians and Confederate saboteurs. And the obligatory gunfight finale.
