I love watching American Classic movies....beca use when I was growing up I didn't go to the movie theater instead I watched what was shown on TV. In time, I grew to love watching those classics. I wish I could see them play in the big screen - how amazing it'll be.

I took film history in college. They made us watched dark films dakor noir or films with women diva femme fatale.
We had to write papers after watching it for a whole week on the big screen.
Watching was boring but when you do research and writing about it, it got interesting.
For the likes of myself, I can't offer you the titles of these movies.
One can only enjoy these black and white films if one only knows the artistic values to the evolution of cinema as art. Like some movies of today's are using the style of yesterday like shoot in the dark but uses lighting to create the effect.
Like did you know that kissing for more than a few seconds were forbidden in the old movie days?

I wasn't born yet when those movies came out. Thus, I couldn't see them on the big screen.
