The intruder with William Shatner https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ci4dQ2QzBhE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ci4dQ2QzBhE The story depicts the machinations of a racist named Adam Cramer (Shatner), who arrives in the fictitious small Southern town of Caxton in order to incite white townspeople to racial violence against black townspeople and court-ordered school integration.

  Shatner doesn't get his due. That guy's got chops.

Anything Marx Brothers is hilarious

  Word of warning that Day at the Races has a "minstrel show" scene that's pretty offensive even by 30s standards. Other than that, the Marx Brothers are easily the greatest comedy troupe in American history, and their films are still some of the funniest ever made

  The best comedy I know!

Arsenic and Old Lace

  A thousand times this. Best screwball comedy ever. Also You Can't Take It With You. Now you've seen one Cary Grant and one Jimmy Stewart. To finish up you can get both of them with Catherine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story.

Gregory Peck made a lot of great movies. Charade and North by Northwest are both very good.

The Naked City by Jules Dassin is a really good police procedural. If you like stuff like Law & Order, this is the progenitor. The Third Man is classic, classic noir. Between the on location shooting in Vienna, fantastic performances by Joseph Cotten and Orson Welles, and really distinctive cinematography, it's just stunning. A Man Escaped. To quote Godard, "He is the French cinema, as Dostoevsky is the Russian novel and Mozart is German music". If you like simple, but beautiful films, watch Bresson. A Man Escaped makes all other prison break films, with their endless plot twists and convolutions, seem utterly pointless. Instead Bresson focuses on the character, the drama and the methodical process of breaking out.
