Hey, Valis, I thought I was the only one who had seen "The Loved One"! Great satire. The book was pretty good too.
I have so many favorite old movies it's hard to pick. The Thin Man series is wonderful, anything with the Marx Brothers, "The Philadelphia Story," anything with Audrey Hepburn in it, and most Hitchcock films.

"In the Heat of the Night" - that scene when Sidney P slaps the cop back was priceless. "Oliver" - Made me cry "Wuthering Heights" - creepy love My all time favorite is "Pride and Prejuidice" - Love wins out. And of course nobody does it like Fred and Ginger :) Victorian Sky

Ditto – my feelings also
Sidney Poitier – I absolutely loved this movie he was in with Anne Bancroft, it was basically just the two of them in dialogue for the whole movie, and it was spellbinding. He played a volunteer at a suicide help line, and Bancroft was the suicide victim. I saw it a long time ago and would love to rent/buy it but I can’t remember the blinking name – anybody else know which one I’m referring to?
Katherine Hepburn – Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, African Queen are my two favourite Hepburn movies
Bogie and Bacall
Bogie by himself (Treasure of the Sierra Madre – great movie)
Wuthering Heights (Olivier/Merle Oberon – I think) – sobbed like a baby
Marx Brothers – A Night at the Opera
Casablanca, naturally
My Fair Lady
Wizard of Oz (I love the effects they were able to achieve at that time, without the computer simulations and everything we have now)
James Stewart – Harvey and Mr. Smith Goes to Washington my two favourite Stewart movies
but my all-time favourite is probably Singing in the Rain
so much to choose from!!
Everything James Cagney.
Rear window.......James Stewart and Grace Kelly
There is another movie I liked very much. It stared Fred Astair and Ginger Rodgers. In the movie, they created a dance called the Soft shoe. Does anyone remember the name of this movie?
