Lance's Mom said:I found that I liked it even more in the end.
I really need to see 42nd Street.
Nice to see all the strong love for M, even if I personally prefer Lang's follow-up Mabuse film, which I find a little bit more sophisticated, if not as iconic. If you guys haven't seen it there's a great criterion edition. And in the UK there's a brand new Mabuse set which containt Testament as well as the original 4-hour silent epic Dr. Mabuse: The Gambler, and Lang's final film The 1,000 Eyes of Dr. Mabuse from 1960 which is really underrated and has a lot of elements that would later become associated with the James Bond series.
Indeed.
You should watch them, Danny. Marx Brothers >>>> Queen.
i think i saw one once. it was on the ABC at about 2 or 3 am one morning about three or four years ago, black and white. i remember a hotel room, moustaches, a dead body and a room service person... it was pretty funny.

Yeah that was a personal favorite of mine. I absolutely LOVE Jean Arthur.
Gunga Din is fantastic as well.
Drums Along the Mohawk (39) Ford (strangely forgotten film but my dad's favorite)
Always thought I may have had another kid somewhere out there I didn't know about
It's not me?
I haven't seen Drums or Lincoln, unfortunately. Some big Ford blind spots for me, which is funny because I've seen a lot of very hard-to-find stuff from him like 7 Women, The Rising of the Moon, Gideon of Scotland Yard, The Sun Shines Bright, etc.
A Nous la Liberté is really good - it is definitely a counterpart to Metropolis and a huge influence on Modern Times.
Funny that I have two prison related films in my list.
That's hot.

I am sad that I only found out afterwards that the version of the film I was watching had two semi-key scenes cut out of it, ones that helped aesthetically tell the story at any rate.
Thanks for the recommendation, Gump. This thread, and the others have been so great in adding films to the already expansive-must-see list I (and I'm sure others) have.
