Like there's any other correct answer.

psycho, 2001, vertigo i guess

ANAL QUEEN

Jason and the Argonauts

What's her appeal? Seriously she looks like a bird, has a weird nose. There must have been better waifus at the time, surely.

>watching movies post pre-code

mmm

Italian Job

TV Show: Twilight Zone (though it started in 1959)
Movie: Dr. Strangelove

Honestly, not too many movies were great. I could probably count the number of movies I actually liked on both hands.

The Innocents

Either this or 8 1/2 by Fellini

Bad taste

...

You have probably seen like 20 films from the 60's.

...

Has to be far less than that

Hm, a good point. I've probably seen roughly 30ish. Doesn't help that I don't like certain classics or genres.
Breakfast at Tiffany for example is quite shit.


I STILL don't know why anyone would need $50 to powder their nose.

...

>Jane Fonda

I swear she had no fear whatever.

Ah, but you are implying that this isn't my fetish.

>"Bitch!"

Still makes me laugh.

...

Oh, with Disney movies and James Bond, it's probably 40. Plus, I've seen a few of the musicals (only about 3 of them).

Hidden messages of Breakfast At Tiffany's
-For young women, money is often abundant.
-Being attractive means that most will mistake your vacuity for charm.
-Women couldn't give a shit about your career, they'd rather find an attractive man and then project all of their desires underneath him.
-The 60s were a better time.

perfect movie for a nap

I would never date Audrey's character. What a horrible person.

>-Being attractive means that most will mistake your vacuity for charm.

Interesting you should mention that. I certainly like Audrey Hepburn but not Holly Golightly as a character or Breakfast at Tiffany's as a movie.

These two are pleb answers, but they're my kinda pleb. Dollars Trilogy gets a mention here as well.

>Breakfast at Tiffany for example is quite shit.
Yeah, agree, that one hasn't aged well. Never understood the appeal.

>Honestly, not too many movies were great.
That's crap. Hell, just ticking off award winners and high profile stuff, not even getting a little bit obscure, you've got Psycho, Graduate, Wild Bunch, 8 1/2, LoA, Butch Cassidy, NotLD, Tequila Mockingbird, 2001, Midnight Cowboy, Persona... that's ten right there off the top of my head. That's just the tip of the iceberg.

>Having less than 200 minutes

cocaine hadn't become popular yet. simple supply and demand

>sandnigger AND homogay propaganda

...

I think there are lots of GOOD movies but not great. Though, as I was reading the lists of movies that came out of the 60's
>I think you're right that I am underestimating the number of great movies
>I found like 15 movies I wanna watch now
>I wanna REwatch some films
There are some really interesting choices but I can't help worrying that some of these movies will be crap.
I tend to have badluck with movies I haven't heard of.

Anyone seen "Shoot the piano player" or "The exterminating angel" or "Long day's journey into the night"?

...

Seconds

GBU

not an argument

...

Unironically Reddit.

Oh *shit* yes. I could fetch myself a good punch in the mouth for not nominating it.

>Anyone seen "Shoot the piano player"

Yes. Two thumbs up.

>or "The exterminating angel"

No idea.

>or "Long day's journey into the night"?

I know it. To my mind it stands out as an example of a fine cast struggling furiously with a protracted, dull eyeroll-inducing story.

"There's only two types of people in the world: Those with the only right answer and those who dig. You dig."

Some good 60's movies I liked:
Spartacus
The Fearless Vampire Killers
Dr. Strangelove
Psycho
Easy Rider
Psych-Out
Carnival of Souls
Il Sorpasso
Marnie
In Cold Blood
2001: A Space Odyssey
One, Two, Three
Zazie dans le métro
The Great Silence
Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow
Experiment in Terror
Hunger
The Born Losers
Onibaba
In Cold Blood
Midnight Cowboy
Le Trou
Lawrence of Arabia
Cool Hand Luke
Hell Is a City
Mouchette
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
Repulsion
The Virgin Spring
Wait Until Dark
Contempt
The Girl on a Motorcycle
Strait-Jacket
The Chase
Premature Burial
The Graduate
Night of the Living Dead
True Grit
Blast of Silence
Breakfast at Tiffany’s

Thanks. It's a start. I too worry that the last movie will probably suck.

...

>anime
get out of here weeb

8 1/2, Antonioni trilogy, Jules and Jim plus these

Shoot the Piano Player was ok, not great. Exterminating Angel is one of my favorite movies though. Long Day's Journey I read the book of a long time ago and was good but had no idea there was a movie.

Why do I keep seeing this same shit minus One, Two, Three any time I see the 60's section of someone's letterboxd profile

Are these all on a list or something

Woman in the Dunes

Patrician choice
The best from Frankenheimer with The Manchurian Candidate

Came in here to suggest Blow Up.

>The best from Frankenheimer
t. hasn't seen more than 5 Frankenheimers

In what list you saw The Born Losers for example? Just kys summer retard.

Not even in the top 5 60's social commentaries

Don't get mad you get your taste from generic lists.

>The Born Losers
not even the best Billy Jack flick

Prettymuch all of these are considered classics, but I tend to prune out the ones that for one reason or another haven't aged that well. Breakfast at Tiffany's is one. Easy Rider is cool, but definitely a movie very specific to its time and place, modern viewers might not find much there.

I still think its a fucking brilliant film though.
I don't know what it is about Antonioni, but his style is so calm and subtle yet I love it.

>Not even in the top 5 60's social commentaries
That wasn't what the OP asked. "Favorites" are subjective.

Shoot the piano player is great,
The exterminating angel is not top Buñuel, Viridiana is way better

>Birdman of Alcatraz
>The Manchurian Candidate
>The Train (great as well)
>Seconds
>French Connection 2
>Dead Bang
>52 Pick-Up
>Ronin

But I dind't see The Gypsy Moths yet

Antonioni didn't do anything new that wasn't already done a million times in the silent era.

>the memes, put them in the basket, now!

Nice. I'll check out both.

...

> Breakfast at Tiffany's is one
> where is my triple penetration with nigger dicks

I've seen that shot before

>The exterminating angel is not top Buñuel

Why? That's one of the most unique films i've seen. I guess it's less accessible then Viridiana (which is great) since it's more experimental and surreal so most people can't get into it.

Why do people watch the worst Paul Newman flicks from the 60's? Cool Hand Luke, The Hustler? Are they getting them off lists or something? That's not even the best Robert Rossen flick from the 60's

Pretentious asshole has arrived

can't stand this actress, anyone who goes to that much effort to look cutesy and competent is a demon doing one of those things out of spite. Rather reward a steady stream of pleasant 7/10s with my cock than acknowledge this quirky 10/10

>more experimental and surreal so most people can't get into it.
Actually the opposite, pleb. Surrealism attracts teenagers like flies on shit.

I watched it in spanish, so how shitty the audio was may have influenced me. I don't know what was going on, but the audio of his mexican films have some shitty quality, hearing Nazaring was specially painful
Still, among his surreal films I prefer The Phantom of Liberty

>No Batman

Fucking hipsters.

Harper's underappreciated on Sup Forums.

Is it just me or could 1969 be one of the best years in the history of film?

Shit as well. Try Hud or pic-related.

how does this movie make anyone fucking laugh

the ants overwhelming that scorpion sends shivers down my spine


it reminds me of all the times something better was trumped because of the other side had numbers

>german tanks were worth 4x as other places

Maybe Pale Flower or A Gentle Woman

Why doesn't Batman dance anymore?

The most forgettable decade. I had to look over all the movies I had seen from it just to find a favorite. Gonna have to go for the original apekino.

>history channel memes

>These two are pleb answers, but they're my kinda pleb. Dollars Trilogy gets a mention here as well.


do you get an erection from watching a pram roll down some steps in Russia? thread says favorite sixties film, not favorite Eisenstein artfag staring-out-of-the-window wank.

Yeah, it's got to be one of the Antonioni tetralogy. I think Red Desert is my favourite.
It's not easy to see what point you (or more accurately, the critic) is trying to make based on that excerpt.
Exterminating Angel is good. Recently got an operatic "adaptation" by Ades which was great too.

>It's not easy to see what point you (or more accurately, the critic) is trying to make based on that excerpt.
Then you need to go back kintergarden.

...

this nibba right here.

And the Futurists were doing that before Griffith.
>stripped of spectacle and historical surroundings
Very different from Antonioni's films, which rely on the fact of the historical surroundings to be effective in portraying society as malfunctioning in the face of modern life and scientific advancement.

Bonnie and Clyde

What's with Olive Oyl in the upper left?

>not appreciating the technical marvel of LoA
reddit beckons

Unless you're talking about Sign of Rome, Antonioni never did a historical film you lowlip-hanging tard

>What's her appeal?
HELLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO REDDIT!

this film is genius holy fuck

>adjustments to modern life
literally most of Griffith's oeuvre. And it's actually more significant with Griffith since a lot of his stuff was autobiographical and made in the beginning of the modern era

hepburn is a 'le classic-cinema xd' waifu for faggots that can't name any of her other films besides Breakfast at Tiffany's.
She is reddit faggotry, plain and simple.

Some bait is just impossible to gain any traction with. I know you want to be a cool edgy contrarian so you can fit in with your new Sup Forums friends but you should probably pick a topic that doesn't just make you look like an idiot.

Talk shit get hit
