Classic Romantic
Added 2025-02-04 06:47:54 +0000 UTCOh February you beautiful pink and red month! Ok all you classic lovers out there, what should I watch?
Ps-already watching my fair lady

Brokeback mountain is, without doubt, one of the greatest lovestories ever told. I feel it's a shame that I have never even seen anyone even sugest it to the two lovecrazed girls (both the sisters from Canada). Be well/ Sweden.
Mattias Ljungberg
2025-06-16 14:07:18 +0000 UTCBorn Yesterday needs to be on this list. Both Carly and Cassie would adore it.

2025-02-23 19:27:24 +0000 UTCLol, I just realized the top 2 movies both contain people who aren't East Asian playing East Asians. đŹ I've always enjoyed the King and I, but re-watching it during Covid... it's not a great film. Pretty boring direction.
Z Simons
2025-02-09 19:36:42 +0000 UTCOh interesting that was a Harrison pick. That wouldn't even register as one of his movies to me TBH. Totally forgot about it.

2025-02-09 03:47:04 +0000 UTCQuirky?
Jason Mangen
2025-02-08 22:29:07 +0000 UTC"Mediocre when it was first released"? Hmm, it was nominated for 5 Academy Awards, including Best Actress for Audrey Hepburn, it was a critical success at the box office; the moviegoers loved it, and the critics loved it, but it was mediocre, lol.
Mark T
2025-02-08 18:01:16 +0000 UTCSoooooo depressing to see Breakfast at Tiffany's with such a big lead over The Philadelphia Story, given that the former was a mediocre movie when it was first released and has aged so badly it isn't even that anymore. But that iconic poster of gorgeous Audrey Hepburn with her long black gloves and sleek cigarette holder continues to lend the film an aura that lingers. Philadelphia Story is one of the ten best films of the entire decade of the 1940's, whereas Breakfast at Tiffany's isn't even one of the best 200 films of the 1960's. Oh well ...

2025-02-08 00:46:23 +0000 UTCChris Thom: "I thought she watched the remake because (Harrison Ford was in it) and she wanted to see it?" There, I fixed it for you!
Mike LL
2025-02-07 13:54:30 +0000 UTCProbably true. And there was that famous song from the 90's was on the radio constantly.
Chris Thom
2025-02-07 05:12:24 +0000 UTCI thought she watched the remake because the original was already on the channel and she wanted to see it?
Chris Thom
2025-02-07 05:11:26 +0000 UTCCassie should watch the real Sabrina, to make up for her watching the remake.
Thomas Thompson
2025-02-06 18:48:18 +0000 UTCI grew up watching The King and I (1956) with my sisters. We loved it so much! I haven't seen it in so long!!! Please, watch it as well!
fire12wife
2025-02-06 17:26:34 +0000 UTCI think you are right that voting is going to Breakfast because of name recognition.
Mike LL
2025-02-06 16:09:50 +0000 UTCNo nom for Cary. The flick got noms for Jimmy, Kate, Ruth Hussey (Supporting Actress), director Cukor, writer, and Best Picture, of course. Only Jimmy got a win.
Mike LL
2025-02-06 12:35:58 +0000 UTCWhat's Up Doc is not a direct remake of Bringing Up Baby, but the lead characters are certainly based on the characters from Baby!
Mike LL
2025-02-06 12:29:04 +0000 UTCWell Mike... it is either time to buy a Lottery Ticket... or run for the hills! ;) :D
Doug Fisher
2025-02-06 05:56:52 +0000 UTCYou guys should put "SPOILER ALERT" at the beginning of your comments.
Doug Fisher
2025-02-06 05:54:14 +0000 UTCAnd I said, "What about breakfast at Tiffany's?" She said, "I think I remember the film and As I recall, I think we both kinda liked it" And I said, "Well, that's the one thing we've got" Brilliant
Chris Thom
2025-02-06 02:25:56 +0000 UTCDang 2017? Never say die.
Chris Thom
2025-02-06 02:21:06 +0000 UTCAhh Basic Instinct. A pure romance between a faceless hot woman and her prey...and an ice pick. And another hot chick, who might just be that first chick but we don't know, and her endless interpersonal mind games. And a detective who will get laid somehow being embroiled in that shit show. Now that's true love.
Chris Thom
2025-02-06 02:19:39 +0000 UTCDid Cary Grant get a nom too? Was he 'Supporting'?
Chris Thom
2025-02-06 02:15:02 +0000 UTCMy vote is that Cassie sees all the movies on this list. She would enjoy them all.
Julie
2025-02-06 00:30:27 +0000 UTCand its all perfectly clear now isnt it ? ...ah no! .... and it never will be as long as shes explaining it ! she is so cute in that movie
Nolofinwe
2025-02-05 22:12:07 +0000 UTCThe Philadelphia Story is my top choice.
Clay F
2025-02-05 22:01:10 +0000 UTCCatherine, you are not saying the US military caricature depictions of all Japanese has having impossibly exagerrated buck teeth and incredibly thick lens glasses is accurate because of the Japanese atrocious conduct?
Clay F
2025-02-05 21:56:22 +0000 UTCNah, Elizabeth Taylor!
Catherine LW
2025-02-05 21:52:49 +0000 UTCI absolutely loved the board game RISK as a kid.
Clay F
2025-02-05 21:50:11 +0000 UTCThank you, Clay. I promise I'm not insulting those who love Breakfast at Tiffany's. If you like that film then you like that film. However, I'm doubtful most of the voters have seen even a small percentage of these films, and to that matter even heard of them - given the fact their age. Classic cinema is an acquired taste, and a simple familiarity with the title and its lasting legacy has probably swayed a lot of unwitting opinion.
Brett Richey
2025-02-05 21:49:52 +0000 UTCâIâll be right with you, Mr. Peabody!!!â
Catherine LW
2025-02-05 21:47:46 +0000 UTCBrett, good post.
Clay F
2025-02-05 21:24:33 +0000 UTCAbsolutely spot on with every point made.
Brett Richey
2025-02-05 21:19:55 +0000 UTCYes, we do.
Silver Machine
2025-02-05 21:15:00 +0000 UTCYep. And the iconic image of Audrey Hepburn in the black cocktail dress has kept this embarrassingly dated, mediocre movie alive long past its expiration date. These days, it works better as a poster than as a film. (Better yet, read the book!)
Silver Machine
2025-02-05 21:09:43 +0000 UTCI suspect some people are voting for Breakfast at Tiffany's simply because it's the only one they've heard of. I personally find it to be too problematic to enjoy anymore. The Philadelphia Story gets my vote but the one everyone has heard of will win.
Brett Richey
2025-02-05 20:31:32 +0000 UTCPhiladelphia story is one of my favorites , Jimmy Stewart, Cary Grant,Katherine Hepburn and Ruth Hussey in a comedic love quadrangle, just canât go wrongđ
Jimmy Stewart
2025-02-05 19:30:29 +0000 UTCIâll say it. I think Ryan OâNeal canât act.
Catherine LW
2025-02-05 19:18:20 +0000 UTCIâve seen them all! đ€
Catherine LW
2025-02-05 19:07:17 +0000 UTCCeleste, I love Risk! Used to play it in college and it would last for days. When we paused the game we would make secret deals and alliances and stab everyone in the back! đ
Catherine LW
2025-02-05 19:02:50 +0000 UTCShe has seen Whatâs Up, Doc.
Catherine LW
2025-02-05 18:59:36 +0000 UTCClay - you can also still vote for Breakfast at Tiffanyâs and dislike, or even hate Rooneyâs character. The movies of the past frequently had racism, sexism, and other problematic things in them. I view them in the context of their time rather than by modern standards.
Richard Maurer

Mark White
2025-02-05 18:50:45 +0000 UTCCatchy songs and music and dance numbers will probably be familiar to a number of members,I have watched the movie version,that was long ago....I know it to be the stage play on screen with some of the most elaborate sets ever!!
Celeste McAllister
2025-02-05 18:16:21 +0000 UTCToo many of my favorite classic movies are on this list! So hard to choose just one lol
Anjolie Lanel
2025-02-05 16:07:07 +0000 UTCagreed
J
2025-02-05 16:01:19 +0000 UTCGood stuff Javier
J
2025-02-05 16:00:06 +0000 UTCI can't agree more! Classic Neil Simon with Redford and Fonda delivering superb performances.
Phillip Bates
2025-02-05 09:14:11 +0000 UTCI paid off the channel. Not enough Harrison Ford on the channel.
Rick Rodriguez
2025-02-05 08:33:40 +0000 UTCA sheltered life you've led, Mike. My favourite old saying, however.... "Things are not always as they seem. While it's true that all blackberries are black, not all black berries are blackberries."
Clarence Newman
2025-02-05 08:04:21 +0000 UTCThat'll probably go in the Modern poll. This one only goes up to 1970.
Clarence Newman
2025-02-05 07:58:32 +0000 UTCBarefoot in the Park is fantastic and funny (Redford and Fonda at there most beautiful), Iâm surprised how few votes it has. For me itâs right up there with Breakfast at Tiffanyâs.
Ria Grix
2025-02-05 07:17:20 +0000 UTCThe Way We Were should be included.
peridd
2025-02-05 04:54:41 +0000 UTCNot a bad idea. An Affair to Remember also gets referenced a lot in Sleepless in Seattle and Last Chance Harvey. Latter one is a really sweet movie about older people finding love. Not that many have seen it but it's pretty great. I think Cassie would enjoy it.
Chris Thom
2025-02-05 04:53:53 +0000 UTCHave actually never seen any version of this. Are the songs good?
Chris Thom
2025-02-05 04:49:35 +0000 UTCIts because alot of people put today's morals on a different time. No matter if it ment something or not during that time frame.
David Freese
2025-02-05 04:42:02 +0000 UTCPretty sure the movie was pretty different. They always kind of did the same thing with Capote that they later did for Brett Easton Ellis. Tone everything down and switch up character motivations.
Chris Thom
2025-02-05 04:39:26 +0000 UTCWell Working Girl this week so it was higher up on the list then we thought
David Freese
2025-02-05 04:37:24 +0000 UTCany Cary Grant movie - a great actor
JarHead0351
2025-02-05 03:55:24 +0000 UTCOohhh, a Hepburn-Tracy poll. I'm with you on Stanwyck. She'll always be the hot matriarch from Big Valley to me.
Javier Hernandez
2025-02-05 03:12:53 +0000 UTCWhat a fascinating list!
Mike LL
2025-02-05 02:30:36 +0000 UTCWhichever film(s) win, you're in for a (buncha) treat(s)!!
Judy M. Goodman
2025-02-05 01:54:48 +0000 UTCTrue but he hated the movie because its nothing like the book. In the movie she's definitely using men for money but she isn't a hooker like in the book. Movie also has a happy ending.
Nicholas Coy
2025-02-05 01:47:32 +0000 UTCI ordered 'RISK' I've not played that boardgame before....
Celeste McAllister
2025-02-05 01:24:19 +0000 UTCI remember the country âSiamâ on the old Risk board â above Indonesia.
Clay F
2025-02-05 01:19:13 +0000 UTCYou should think about a poll for the remakes, too. 2002 The Truth About Charlie (Charade) 1999 Anna and the King (the King and I) 1995 Sabrina (Sabrina) I think you've already seen that 1994 Love Affair (Beatty and Benning a real couple!) (An Affair to Remember) 1974 The Front Page (His Girl Friday) 1972 What's Up Doc (Bringing Up Baby) 1956 High Society (Philadelphia Story)
Javier Hernandez
2025-02-05 01:17:51 +0000 UTCJust remember that in Breakfast At Tiffany's, Holly is a sex-worker. Not as obvious as Pretty Woman but all the hints are there. Truman Capote is said to have had Marilyn Monroe in mind when he came up with the story.
Javier Hernandez
2025-02-05 00:45:04 +0000 UTCNot one of the worst I've seen, but far from the best in this list IMO.
James Melton
2025-02-05 00:22:52 +0000 UTCOne of the reasons why I love classic films is because of the dialogue. So much more witty! And the writing is superior. Nowadays itâs largely sound bytes.
Catherine LW
2025-02-05 00:09:47 +0000 UTCNo, Arsenic and Old Lace.
Catherine LW
2025-02-05 00:04:26 +0000 UTCP.S. Looking forward to your My Fair Lady reaction, which I consider one of the top film musicals of all time, maybe THE top. (I assume your footnote means we can expect a reaction to be posted, and not just your viewing it off-channel.)
Alan Jones
2025-02-05 00:00:03 +0000 UTCShe always adds a few more romance movies specifically in November and February. 3-4 slots this month I would predict.
Joe
2025-02-04 23:58:37 +0000 UTCWithholding my vote for Breakfast at Tiffany's soley due to the demeaning racial (Japanese) impersonation included among the minor characters. Pretty good film, excellent song (Moon River), but I can't tolerate that one character. Listen to the song, maybe see a YouTube excerpt of the ending in the rain, but otherwise, a missable film IMHO.
Alan Jones
2025-02-04 23:51:21 +0000 UTCdo we really need a romance month? isnt cassie's PPotM the romance slot for every month? ;p
Augustine Lee
2025-02-04 23:43:46 +0000 UTCCassie would love Philadelphia Story
tom kenny
2025-02-04 23:39:38 +0000 UTCFor me Katherine Hepburn was never more fashionable and stunning than in The Philadelphia Story.
Rose
2025-02-04 23:38:32 +0000 UTCThe Philadelphia Story is a must at some point (one of my top five of all-time). Then thereâs the entire Hepburn-Tracy oeuvre. Also adding a preemptive shoutout for some Barbara Stanwyck content like Ball of Fire and The Lady Eve. (Forgive me if Iâve missed them, Iâm relatively new here.)
Guy
2025-02-04 22:49:40 +0000 UTCThen she can watch Anna and the King (1999) at some point! I have a soft spot for that film because I watched it as a kid.
Han

Tinker
2025-02-04 22:35:56 +0000 UTCThe Japanese were not demonized. If you read WWII history, Pacific theater, they demonized themselves by their atrocious conduct towards POWs and civilians.
Catherine LW
2025-02-04 22:35:27 +0000 UTCI voted for 6, but The Philadelphia Story (1940) (currently in 3rd place) is my top choice. Maybe she will react to the top 3 winners in the poll, but probably not because she is already reacting to My Fair Lady.
Clay F
2025-02-04 22:20:54 +0000 UTCđ€ she watches it even tho itâs way behind the leader. I love Yul Brynnerâs take on The March of the Siamese Children: "The presentation of children has to do with the respect that we must always keep, for the individual human being of any age, of any color, of any breed, of any religion. That the individual must be respected for his individuality which means..he's unique as a human being." He had a beautiful voice - one of the great actors and a very classy man.

Celeste McAllister
2025-02-04 21:40:19 +0000 UTCRick, on the Extra Butter live chat Cassie said "Working Girl" and "Moonstruck" are on her radar for a Popcorn Pick Of The Month. Not necessarily this month, though.

Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 21:35:49 +0000 UTCOne of my mother's fondest memories with her father is watching "The King and I" together. đ
Steve Holton
2025-02-04 21:34:36 +0000 UTCYul Brunner is very convincing as an Asian in The King and I, which is to say that his portrayal does not come across as a parody or a caricature. King Mongkut is strong, noble, proud, compassionate, fearless, a good father, et cetera et cetera et cetera. You and Cassie will love it.
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 21:34:18 +0000 UTCI read the term âyellowfaceâ in reference to The King and I (1956) from several sources (e.g., BBC, The Guardian, etc.). My understanding is that all Asian characters in The King and I (1956) are portrayed by white people, which is not surprising b/c likely the most feasible way to make a financially successful movie for a western audience at the time. My guess is I would like the movie. Crossing my fingers. Cambridge Dictionary âyellowfaceâ 1. the practice of white actors changing their appearance with makeup in order to play East Asian characters in movies, plays, etc.: âThe comedian has been accused of yellowface for playing a Japanese designer in the movie.â 2. the makeup that is used in this practice: âIn the adaptation of the play, Asian men are depicted by white actors in yellowface.â Oxford Dictionary: âyellowfaceâ refers to the practice of wearing makeup to imitate the appearance of an East Asian person, typically as part of a performance. This practice is generally regarded as offensive. "that particular Chinese detective was invariably played by a white actor in yellowface.â An aspect I liked about The Wild Bunch (1969) [an AFI Top 100 movie I recently watched] is that while having many roles for characters who were Mexican, every single role was played by a Latino -- that was unheard of in 1969.
Clay F
2025-02-04 21:27:46 +0000 UTCIt was bound to happen sometime, Mike. You know what they say about the sun shining on a dog's ass. đ€Ł
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 21:26:34 +0000 UTCQuestion: Is Yul Brynner convincing as an Asian person? Question: Does the acting, makeup, demeanor, sound of voice, etc. of Yul Brynner and the movie context lead you to believe that Yul Brynner is an Asian person, especially by the end of the movie? When I was recently watching Lawrence of Arabia, Alec Guiness attempting to portray the Arabic Prince Feisal was difficult (hard) to look at/listen to. I did eventually become acclimated. Alec Guiness is a good actor and plus I was liking the movie.

Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 21:23:22 +0000 UTCWhat is going on? How is the movie I voted for winning? Did we enter end times and I missed the notice?
Mike Lemon
2025-02-04 21:17:59 +0000 UTCThis one's way older than Cassie is prepared to go, but one of the best examples of a respectfully portrayed "yellowface" character is in Broken Blossoms (1919). Lillian Gish plays a broken and abused girl who's been so badly treated by her father that she's forgotten how to smile. She meets a Chinese man played by Richard Barthelmess (a character billed as "Cheng Huan/The Yellow Man") and through kindness and patience, he finally gives her a reason to smile. The film ends tragically, but the relationship between the girl and Cheng is wonderful. In 1996, Broken Blossoms was included in the annual selection of 25 motion pictures to be added to the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress.
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 21:17:47 +0000 UTC'The King and I' I sent a copy to Cassie more than 2yrs back,I remember she said "This Looks like something I would want to watch".đ§§đđ
Celeste McAllister
2025-02-04 21:17:33 +0000 UTCAm I crazy, or didnât Cassie already watch Bringing Up Baby?
Silver Machine
2025-02-04 21:16:11 +0000 UTCWith some exceptions, older films (classics or not) do poorly on YT. It's nice of Cassie to feature one every few months on the channel.
Joe
2025-02-04 21:12:17 +0000 UTCI've never seen Marty, but I really need to get around to it. All I know about it is from a review of the first Rocky movie. The critic called it "A good little story about triumph over adversity, but all in all, Marty did it better."
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 21:08:50 +0000 UTCJon Johns! Since when has Cassie watched West Side Story? Did I miss that on her list? If she has, I need to give her a high five, because I hated West Side Story too!
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 21:06:41 +0000 UTCSpeaking of which. I forget. But did Working Girl get on the roster or am I thinking of a poll where it almost won?
Rick Rodriguez
2025-02-04 21:03:51 +0000 UTCI do wish they had gotten Karlof. He was great years later in Walter Mitty.
Rick Rodriguez
2025-02-04 21:02:54 +0000 UTCNo, it was for acting. The Mafia made the Academy an offer it couldn't refuse.
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 21:02:41 +0000 UTCIn honour of Eli Wallach's character in The Holiday, it should be "The Cary Grant and Women of Gumption poll".
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 21:00:58 +0000 UTCThanks Clay, I just looked it up, 100% RT!! Great cast as well. Might have to bear it in mind.
Mark White
2025-02-04 20:50:50 +0000 UTCWilliam, good point. I voted The Philadelphia Story. We don't have to erase those films (I am against censorship), but we don't have to vote for them in a poll. It is a legitimate valid choice to not vote for Breakfast at Tiffany's because of the Mickey Rooney character. On the other hand, some like and many tolerate the Mickey Rooney character. Up to each individual who votes.
Clay F
2025-02-04 20:46:41 +0000 UTCYeah I always assumed that they were mother and daughter.

Clay F
2025-02-04 20:41:34 +0000 UTCWhen I watched The Philadelphia Story [AFI Top 100], I was unsure because 1940 has typically been too old for me, but the acting/charisma of that trio is stunning and I ended up loving the movie.
Clay F
2025-02-04 20:39:36 +0000 UTCI've heard (at least vaguely) of most of the movies in the poll but have only watched two, one being "The Philadelphia Story" (1940) which I thought awesome and think you might like.
Clay F
2025-02-04 20:36:04 +0000 UTCGrace Kelly is absolutely stunning in Rear Window.
Clay F
2025-02-04 20:31:18 +0000 UTCYeah. And Katherine.
Clay F
2025-02-04 20:30:15 +0000 UTCNotting Hill is my favorite Julia Roberts movie.
Clay F
2025-02-04 20:29:32 +0000 UTCI respect their wishes, although I don't see The King and I, either now or when it was made, as any kind of intended insult. Things date, that's all. By way of perspective, the portrayal of Queen Elizabeth II in The Naked Gun is way more disrespectful (I mean, WAY more!), but you'll never see that banned in Britain. We tend to take that sort of thing in the spirit it's intended.
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 20:24:08 +0000 UTCHere and on another channel, I've been making an effort to watch reactions to classics, most of the movies I have never seen.
Clay F
2025-02-04 20:21:15 +0000 UTCYep. I'm always the first in line for them when they arrive.
Kent Theaker
2025-02-04 20:18:30 +0000 UTCI've seen that one, Mark. Decent movie.
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 20:17:55 +0000 UTCVery nice! Maybe someday Cassie will do a classical musical poll. They just don't make them like that anymore.
Troy Silvester
2025-02-04 20:16:35 +0000 UTCI appreciate your sentiment, but what you say is maybe because patrons wanting wonderful classics are generally a tiny minority of any reactor channel. This channel has delivered reactions to several classics.

2025-02-04 20:16:18 +0000 UTCNot a movie reference, but it's worth pointing out that the 1964 Olympics is often credited as being the moment when Japan finally emerged from the stigma of World War 2. They had been working hard to repair their image for many years and the Tokyo Olympics was a big breakthrough. Before that, I imagine this kind of caricature was considered acceptable. As TheSingulatarian says above, Jerry Lewis almost built a career on it.

2025-02-04 20:16:09 +0000 UTCI voted for "An Affair to Remember" and it is my all time favorite romance, and probably always will be. The song by Vic Damone always melts me. Some of these are fun, some are epic, like the King and I and Funny Girl, but the real answer to this poll is, yes please!

2025-02-04 19:58:08 +0000 UTCMy rather long pointless anecdote about My Fair Lady. My Fair Lady was an annual favorite on CBS television in the 1970s and was shown on Thanksgiving every year. My family always watched it at my aunt's house on her 15-inch color TV. At the time most wide-screen movies were shown in shitty "Pan and Scan" mode so the camera would have to be manually panned over the print if something was happening of the other side of the screen. Add in the over the air broadcast quality and the experience was greatly reduced from the full cinematic experience. Several years ago I purchased the Blu-ray restoration of the film and it was a completely new experience. Full aspect ratio, stereophonic sound it looked like it had been shot yesterday. It kicked a 7 movie up to 11. God bless film restoration crews. They are doing the Lord's work.

Slapped his daughter when she was nominated for an Oscar in Paper Moon, and he wasn't. Lee Majors asked him to look after his wife Farah Fawcet while Majors was away making a movie. Instead, he slept with her and stole her away from Majors. What a goon.

2025-02-04 19:08:05 +0000 UTCRooney was a piker. The world championship of racist East Asian caricatures has to go to Jerry Lewis who did this multiple times. I will say there was an attempt to humanize the Japanese throughout the fifties and the sixties since they had been so demonized during the Second World War, and I could point to a dozen movies at least that try to do just that. Now that they were our Cold War allies the propaganda tables turned. "We have always been at war with Eurasia. East Asia is our friend." Mr. Yunioshi was probably the most ham fisted of these but everyone from Marlon Brando to Rex Harrison was doing yellowface well into the 1960s with varying results. In the end the blame has to be shared with Director Blake Edwards because he was telling Rooney what to do. It wasn't until "Flower Drum Song" in the early sixties was a film released that had almost a full Asian cast and they still had to sub in several Japanese actors and one Black woman for Chinese characters.

Itâs one of those movies that people love to pan, like Cocktail, but you just sort of know Cassie would like.

2025-02-04 17:35:09 +0000 UTCHi Cassie, suggestion for next year's valentine's poll: Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975), a masterpiece of a film directed by Peter Weir, who went on to direct Dead Poet's Society (1987) and The Truman Show (1997). The film is set in Australia on 14th February 1900, which is why I thought it would be a good reaction on Valentine's Day
JONATHAN REDFERN WILLIAMS
2025-02-04 17:34:01 +0000 UTCToo bad Notorious didnât make the poll. Early Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman, romantic, suspenseful, with the most sympathetic villain played by the great Claude Rains.
Catherine LW
2025-02-04 17:31:01 +0000 UTCAgreed Richard regards to all eras have there good and bad movies. And yes there was lots of seriously cheesy films in the 80s. But I personally think that was one of the best decades for Sci-Fi and maybe the worst for romantic movies. But itâs not just romantic films from the 50s itâs most genres as itâs not just the dialogue but how they deliver the lines and speak in general. I just have problems taking them seriously, the score/music as well I find can be annoying after a while. So as Iâve said they tend to be films I just donât get on with, but I also get why some people love them as we all like different styles and genres in general. Iâm willing to bet thereâs quite a few films that Iâd have in my top 50/25 that you would probably hate and vice Versa, but Iâd be absolutely fine with that as if we all like the same things life would be dull.
Dean Holt
2025-02-04 17:26:44 +0000 UTCI hope Cassie will watch the top two. Great for her to find the joy in a Rogers and Hammerstein musical. There are so many great ones like Oklahoma and South Pacific other than the Sound of Music which she enjoyed when she was a youngin.

2025-02-04 16:57:20 +0000 UTCI love the Hepburns but tend to prefer the Kate the Great movies over Audrey. I love Charade but it's more of a spy movie with a romance subplot. I do appreciate the amount of Cary Grant on here. Philadelphia Story is perfection - partly because of Jimmy Stewart, obviously, and I adore Ruth Hussey.
Jennifer Medicus
2025-02-04 16:57:19 +0000 UTCPersonally I think the remake of Sabrina is better than the original. And I just don't understand how the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's is so popular. I watched it once (with my daughter) and we both agreed it was one of the worst movies we've ever seen.

2025-02-04 16:56:15 +0000 UTC@Dean - I really should have said that the good romantic films of the past were better than the good rom-coms of today. No decade of films doesnât have its share of bad and/or cheesy films of any genre. Some decades even have more than their share - cough *80âs* cough.

Richard Maurer

2025-02-04 14:36:41 +0000 UTCThe dialogue alone in HIS GIRL FRIDAY is worth the 100 minutes. Not to mention the insane action involving a desk that starts in 2nd act and goes on to the 3rd. Also, it's the apotheosis of the "Screwball Comedy" genre. And the chemistry between Cary Grant and Rosalind Russellâwho was always all-in on her comediesâis incandescent. All that, and this is Howard Hawks announcing loudly and proudly to the world that he could masterfully direct more than westerns and "men in action" movies.

Chryss Guiler
2025-02-04 13:44:55 +0000 UTCYour point is very, very well taken and valid Mike. How the story ends is NOT a Cassie epilogue... but Love Story is about 'lifelong' love that's deeply felt and lived - that is the triumph... no matter the length... and this is a movie about the purity of 'life' just as much as it is about the purity of 'love.'

2025-02-04 13:28:46 +0000 UTCPhiladelphia and Bringing Up Baby are both fantastic films. Bringing Up Baby was one of the first RomComs, and Philadelphia was a big hit when released. Both are worthy.
Clifton Owens
2025-02-04 13:27:47 +0000 UTCThe real surprise most people have watching these is that they are much better than the recent rom-coms you might have seen. Carey Grant is head and shoulders above Hugh Grant. You might not love these, but some might not be as uninteresting to watch as you'd imagine.

2025-02-04 13:15:40 +0000 UTC"The Way We Were" should be on any list of romantic films. Two top performers and a top director tell an incredible story. Also "Funny Girl" is not one I'd put on a romantic film list. All of these that I've seen are very good.. I've never actually seen "An Affair to Remember" so I'm almost hoping that wins to force me to watch it.

2025-02-04 13:13:41 +0000 UTCAsians didnât like it in the 60s. And people who actually care didnât like it either. Not to mention, California was full of Asian actors. This is post Flower Drum Song. You ever seen one of those old World War II propaganda, cartoons. He looks just like that and he sounds like one too. He wouldâve been a shitty character if he was played by an Asian, but at least it wouldnât be that obnoxious.

Richard Maurer
2025-02-04 13:03:37 +0000 UTCIâm sorry but we canât just erase the films, music, books, etc. of the past because they donât all conform to whatâs acceptable now. Iâm not saying that they werenât problematic, just that we canât expect the art of the past to adhere to the standards of today, and any censorship of said art is wrong and is only really an attempt to make us feel better now about what occurred in the past.
Richard Maurer
2025-02-04 12:59:30 +0000 UTCOh, Iâm sure that there were people who were uncomfortable with it in the 60s. Itâs just no one would listen to them back then. I love old movies, but I donât watch movies with characters like this in it for the same reason I donât watch movies with black face in it. The 60s is way too late a decade for nonsense like that. So many people who donât know what to expect go into this movie because of all the glamorous pictures of Audrey Hepburn and then get ambushed by a World War II propaganda character. Iâm not saying no one should ever watch it again, I have a copy in my film collection. But people should know whatâs in it.
Fritz
2025-02-04 12:58:09 +0000 UTCIt shouldnât be political to mention something like this, and I hate that these days it is. He both looks and acts like a caricature from a World War II propaganda cartoon. It makes me uncomfortable and it makes many people uncomfortable. And itâs a really common criticism so Iâm surprised youâve never heard it. I guess maybe I just know more Asian people. It would be one thing if he was funny or actually essential to the plot of the movie, but heâs not either of those things . Heâs just this annoying, loud, obnoxious guy who shows up and never quite fits in with the tone of the film. That voice is like nails on a chalkboard.

2025-02-04 11:53:03 +0000 UTCIn spite of the Rooney performances (which he himself regretted - more Blake Edwards idea than his from what I've heard), I still love Breakfast at Tiffany's. Still, I voted for the Philadelphia Story.
Kevin Albertina
2025-02-04 11:52:33 +0000 UTCMark, I agree with your every point. Such excellent early Cary Grant movies never seems to shine in these polls, and they are always the best movies in them. Something average always beats them.
Mike LL
2025-02-04 11:48:52 +0000 UTCAgreed completely. It really shouldn't be difficult to omit horrendously racist films from polls like these. And acting like "it wasn't offensive back then" totally ignores how Asian filmgoers must have felt. There's plenty of great classic films that aren't notoriously racist like Breakfast at Tiffany's is.

Here's a relevant clip from Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story of Bruce being upset watching this movie in theaters due to the horrible racism in that film: https://youtu.be/lbiymQJsC8M Just a shameful movie and sad that it seems to be the runaway winner of this poll.

Mike LL
2025-02-04 11:34:09 +0000 UTCI think Love Story would be a terrible choice for Cassie - because of how it ends - and that is not the kind of ending that Cassie is looking for in a movie to watch this month.
Mike LL
2025-02-04 11:33:41 +0000 UTCI agree 1000%. It's tragic seeing so many of my beloved Cary Grant films go down in flames, again, on a PiB poll. This is why some of us have called for dedicated 30's and 40's poll. Because some bland 1960's film, in this case Breakfast at Tiffanys always seems to win.

Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 11:19:00 +0000 UTCAs Austin Powers would say âthis ainât my bag, babyâ đđ. Not actually see any of them and Iâve only heard of 6 lol. I obviously donât have any issues, as there is obviously lots of you that love these movies and Iâm sure Cassie will love most of them. Iâm going for From here to Eternity mainly because Iâm planning at some point to do a post on Instagram about Best picture winners at the Oscarâs.
Dean Holt
2025-02-04 11:13:50 +0000 UTCThe Rooney character is worth mentioning, guys - it's no different than pointing out overt wimpiness or sexuality of certain female characters in black and white movies (I remember Cassie laughing at Uhura's over-dramatic reaction to Kirk's "death" in the Star Trek episode "Space Seed") - but it doesn't need any more than an observation. What's the point of getting upset about something that was considered benignly funny (by Hollywood) 60 years ago, but they've long since evolved beyond? They weren't trying to be nasty or anything - caricatures were a staple of old-time cinema, especially in comedies (most Monroe films, all the Carry Ons, pretty much everything Peter Sellers did.) If we were still doing it in movies today, then fine, tables should be thumped, but that kind of caricature is buried in the past. William and others are right to point this one out (the character wears bottle-end glasses and buck teeth for goodness sake), but if we're going to go a step further and villify Rooney and the filmmakers (which William didn't do, he just made an observation), then it's just fire for the sake of fire. It's also worth pointing out that no "race" of people has been the subject of more blatant profiling/caricaturing in Hollywood films than the British, and that still goes on to this day. We just dismiss it because it's part of the majority culture. There are times, even for us, when it can be a little insulting (we're not all stuck-up toffs or vicious gangsters), but 99% of the time it's just funny. At the end of the day, we're discussing movies here and trying to give Cassie the best viewing experience possible, and Breakfast will be a good one. A heads-up now and then is a real good idea, but now we've given her one or two about Rooney's outdated ethnic caricature, she can feel free to enjoy the film.
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 11:13:40 +0000 UTCI Married A Witch is brilliant! The first Fred and Ginger film I ever saw was The Gay Divorcee (1934) and it was a mind blowing experience for my child self in the early 90s. I would also add The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938) to your list. The absolute pinnacle of the swashbuckler genre
Jacob King
2025-02-04 11:11:42 +0000 UTCYeah. Just watch everything here with Cary Grant. Went with Philadelphia Story. But Bringing up Baby and His Girl Friday are wonderful.

Rick Rodriguez
2025-02-04 10:56:28 +0000 UTCI've discovered Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn later in their careers, in more serious roles. That's how I remember them. Somehow watching them young in romantic comedies does not work for me. I can't suspend disbelief, all I see is Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn working. But Cassie would enjoy these movies, I am pretty sure.
René Ferland
2025-02-04 10:50:34 +0000 UTCBringing Up Baby may have a chance in a pre-1940 romance poll, or in an AFI Top 100 pre-1940 movies poll (not that many). But those polls would probably never happen.

Mark McKeever
2025-02-04 09:53:25 +0000 UTCThank you for mentioning 'The Way We Were' Clarence. It's absolutely baffling to me that perhaps the greatest romance film ever made - Streisand and Redford - never seems to get mentioned here.
Terry Yelmene
2025-02-04 09:51:28 +0000 UTCOkay folks... Cassie just has to meet Jenny (and Oliver) and experience 'Love' Story. Though the title says it all... the tale told' IS THE STORY of all LOVE! Side note - though not considered a 'classic' (it could be), 'Message In A Bottle' with Costner Newman, and Wright must be acknowledged as off the sentimental chart - 'romantic.' (and it's a definite 'Cassie melt' reaction)
Terry Yelmene
2025-02-04 09:39:35 +0000 UTCPerhaps the greatest romance of them all, Gone With The Wind 1939.
Brian Wood
2025-02-04 09:35:11 +0000 UTCThis was a tough one. I felt I had to select at least one Audrey Hepburn movie. it would have been Sabrina except Cassie has already watched the remake and my feeling is whichever you watch first will be your favorite. I would have picked Funny Face (the musical segments are wonderful) but it didnât make the list so I went with Charade. Then I added votes for The King and I and for The Philadelphia Story.
Jeff
2025-02-04 09:29:53 +0000 UTCDon't despair, Rose. Cassie usually watches the first two at least.
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 09:15:41 +0000 UTCClay - As an Asian I love the âKing and Iâ movie musical. My parents and I always have a blast watching it together. Itâs so much fun with the fabulous music and costumes. My math teacher had an uncredited role as one of the royal children in the film. He was Asian and remembered this film fondly. The Philadelphia Story is another one of my favorites but too bad both films are being blown away.
Rose
2025-02-04 09:13:06 +0000 UTCSince no one seems to have really brought it up, I want to make sure that Cassie knows that âBreakfast at Tiffanyâsâ contains one of the most egregious and disgusting cases of yellowface in film. The movie is a permanent stain on the careers of actor Mickey Rooney and director Blake Edwards. The character portrayed by Rooney, a white man, is a horrific racist caricature of a Japanese man, and it absolutely ruins what would otherwise be a perfectly lovely movie. Iâm not here to tell anyone how to vote, or Cassie what do do with her channel, but if âBreakfastâ wins the poll, I wonât be watching the reaction, and I strongly encourage everyone to vote for literally anything else in this poll.
Steven St Clair
2025-02-04 09:04:04 +0000 UTCI wish they did more films together. They really had amazing chemistry.
Rose
2025-02-04 09:03:15 +0000 UTCThis category isn't really in my wheel house,I get it with valentines day coming, my pick here was the king and I as that was one of my grandmother's favorite films, but I'm not mad at Breakfast at Tiffany's leading, there really isn't a bad pick here for Cassie she would like any of these films
Edward Robson
2025-02-04 09:02:01 +0000 UTCI'm sure Cassie has thought of this, but along with this poll, we need a Modern one too. The Way We Were (1973) 10 (1979) Cocktail (1986) Basic Instinct (1992) Cold Mountain (2003)
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 08:56:54 +0000 UTCYou're right! I knew I was forgetting one! "Charade" came after "North by Northwest" but it's still a great movie. I just think she'd enjoy the rapid-fire comedy of "His Girl Friday" or "The Philadelphia Story."
Rick Moreno
2025-02-04 08:55:02 +0000 UTCSurprised His Girl Friday isnât running away with this. That and Bringing Up Baby are my personal picks. I also love Charade, of course. To Catch a Thief belongs on this list. Iâve only read the book of Breakfast so I donât mind if it wins (and then Cassie can react to Capote).
Jacob King
2025-02-04 08:50:48 +0000 UTCI'm rooting for Philadelphia Story, which I hope she sees at some point, but it'll be Breakfast at Tiffany's, which is the definition of "problematic" and it's not just because of Mickey Rooney. The male lead character is completely changed from the book in a way that makes the story nonsensical. But I get why you all want Cassie to see it. It's peak Audrey Hepburn and despite all of its problems there's something kind of primal about it, like it's an origin story of a certain aspect of modern culture. So I guess I won't be mad if it wins. But there's a lot of great stuff on this poll.
jdj830
2025-02-04 08:39:41 +0000 UTCTwo Audrey Hepburn films for February. While I love Audrey Hepburn Iâm kind of disappointed that the âKing and Iâ or âThe Philadelphia Storyâ arenât pulling away. Also wondering when weâll ever see âGone With the Windâ (1939) with Cassie. Bummed thereâs no Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers film. âRobertaâ (1935) isnât their best film together and with minimal screen time - but has two amazing dance numbers thatâs quintessential Fred & Ginger: âIâll be Hard to Handleâ & âSmoke Gets in Your Eyes.â They have so much fun dancing on screen together!
Rose
2025-02-04 08:38:22 +0000 UTCPhiladelphia Story might just be the best comedy of the 1940s.
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 08:35:01 +0000 UTCThe King and I does not come across as "yellowface". It's a rousing and respectful portrayal of a colourful and regal society, superbly portrayed by Yul Brynner in particular. In the very early years of cinema, Hollywood got it so wrong sometimes (Buster Keaton's otherwise brilliant "Seven Chances" is a perfect example), but this film is spot-on. There's nothing wrong with showcasing another culture, and the clash-of-culture trope when handled by great writers and a stellar cast is always interesting to watch. Brynner and Deborah Kerr are superb in this movie and it all comes off very well as a result. It's fun, the musical numbers are iconic ("March of the Siamese Children" in particular) and Cassie will be delighted.
Clarence Newman
2025-02-04 08:33:24 +0000 UTCHaha, I haven't seen a single one of these movies. I'm sure a lot are good though. Heard of a good amount for a long time. It's funny, even my parents born in 1947 and 1956 never recommended movies like them. One was more into Bond films, the other always more into newer films, although my mom is on quite the obscure WWII films kick right now.

2025-02-04 08:18:54 +0000 UTCMy top choice is Philadelphia Story, which I rank for my likes at No. 2 of the 11 pre-1950 movies I have seen. I typically vote for the later movies in these classic polls but was blown away by The Philadelphia Story. I also voted for The King and I, which I have never seen, and am curious. (I have seen Anna and the King with Chow Yun-Fat and Jodie Foster.) Does Yul Brynner make a convincing Asian? Is the entire "yellowface" cast distracting or do you become acclimated? "The King and I: timeless classic or dated relic?"
Clay F

I agree with ArsTropica - a certain era-adjustment will need to be made to accommodate Mickey Rooney's character.

Clay F
2025-02-04 07:30:19 +0000 UTCI didn't expect so many movies in one poll. Very good choices too. I will always vote for Bringing Up Baby, but I'd be just as glad if Barefoot in the Park won. I'm a bit surprised at the amount of votes The King and I is getting. I'm in the minority, but I'm not a fan of Breakfast at Tiffany's. Audrey Hepburn is great, but I think the movie is average. Cassie, thank you again for putting Bringing Up Baby in another poll, but it'll never win. You need to make it your Popcorn Pick of the Month, if you want to see it.

2025-02-04 07:20:19 +0000 UTCI watched for the first time a couple of days ago, so fresh in my mind. I enjoyed watching those 3 awesome actors â James Stewart, Katherine Hepburn, Cary Grant â especially when they interact with each other. Jimmy Stewart is great acting. Cary Grant is smooth w/charisma, as usual. Katherine Hepburn nailed her character who I thought turned out to be complex.

2025-02-04 07:15:42 +0000 UTCI went to see that movie upon release, in the blind, and I loved it! I sure hope Cassie will watch it at some point.

2025-02-04 07:13:59 +0000 UTCI've never seen it. I like Ryan O'Neal and typically vote for later movies in these claissics polls. I thought to vote for it but gets mixed reviews. I know really nothing about it.

2025-02-04 07:12:55 +0000 UTCYes, yay! There is an audience for them in this community.
René Ferland
2025-02-04 07:12:16 +0000 UTCI've never seen it entirely, started once and stopped watching along the way. I just did not care for the story. But it's all fine if it wins here.
René Ferland
2025-02-04 07:11:14 +0000 UTCIf you are in the right mood when you watch it, Barefoot In The Park, is one of the funniest movies ever made.

2025-02-04 07:10:55 +0000 UTCMy main focus is getting Cassie to watch films from the 30s and 40s at the moment. Trouble in Paradise (1932) Twentieth Century (1934) Top Hat (1935) My Man Godfrey (1936) Swing Time (1936) The Awful Truth (1937) Shall We Dance (1937) Bringing Up Baby (1938) Bachelor Mother (1939) Ninotchka (1939) My Favorite Wife (1940) The Philadelphia Story (1940) The Lady Eve (1941) I Married a Witch (1942) Random Harvest (1942) The Palm Beach Story (1942) A Guy Named Joe (1943) The More the Merrier (1943) I leave it to everyone else to pick up where I left off⊠And you did. Happy Colorful Valentines Day ;-)

2025-02-04 07:08:09 +0000 UTCDamn, no Marty (1955) that movie wins an Oscar for best picture can't even make the list

2025-02-04 07:06:13 +0000 UTCThis is the only poll of yours I've seen where EVERY film is well worth watching! My personal favorite of these is The Philadelphia Story.
Lamar Savage
2025-02-04 07:05:22 +0000 UTCThe music of Francis Lai in this movie was quite popular at the time. Besides the main theme, I remember the piece called "Skating in Central Park".
René Ferland
2025-02-04 07:03:50 +0000 UTCI am with you on this. :-)

2025-02-04 07:01:00 +0000 UTCI wish more people knew about Love Story and how much of an impact it made at the time. I love Love Story.

2025-02-04 07:00:57 +0000 UTCthis is the most important clint to watch

Larry Darrell
2025-02-04 06:55:10 +0000 UTCI know Philadelphia Story won't win, but I wish you would watch it sometime, even if it is just in real life. It is an early appearance of Jimmy Stewart who you have enjoyed in several other films and also stars Katherine Hepburn and Cary Grant. 3 of the biggest stars in classic Hollywood. A five sided love affair.
William Brownlee
2025-02-04 06:54:12 +0000 UTCI watched Philadelphia Story (1940) for the first time last week and thought it awesome. That's my No. 1 choice. Yet, looks like Breakfast at Tiffanys (1961) is going to run away with it, which is about time I watch. Can't complain about Audrey Hepburn, and I typically vote for "newer" movies (e.g., the latest decade) in these classic polls.
Clay F
2025-02-04 06:53:26 +0000 UTCNone of these movies are for me. Too old. Though seeing Funny Girl on the list makes me want to watch In & Out (1997) starring Kevin Kline, Joan Cusack, Tom Selleck and Matt Dillon. If youâve seen it you know why.
Luke Godfrey
2025-02-04 06:53:23 +0000 UTCOne of my favourite one hit wonders is âBreakfast at Tiffanyâsâ by Deep Blue Something. Might be time I saw the movie
Cole Jennett
2025-02-04 06:53:14 +0000 UTCCharade is one of my favorite movies. The on screen chemistry of Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn is off the charts.

2025-02-04 06:51:40 +0000 UTCIt's not on the list, but my vote is for Father Goose:)

2025-02-04 06:51:39 +0000 UTCWe will watch Charade some time. I will not give up
DAVID COSTELLO
2025-02-04 06:51:31 +0000 UTCThatâs a lot of 50s and 60s
Larry Darrell
2025-02-04 06:50:54 +0000 UTCYou really must watch Clint Eastwoodâs love story film âThe Bridges of Madison Countyâ eventually. Itâs honestly one of my favorite films of his
Jackie McDonalds
2025-02-04 06:50:19 +0000 UTCOh man... I was hoping American Psycho would be on the list again.
