              Gone With the Wind, though it's in color.

                Do you mean 'Der Himmel über Berlin'? It was translated in english as 'Wings of Desire' , I don't know why they choose that ghastly translation. It's one of my favorites.

                I would also recommend 'Down by Law' and 'Stranger than Paradise' Both by Jim Jarmusch as newer (1980's) b&w movies.

                  I just finished watching Touch of Evil. It's a damnable shame that Hollywood wouldn't let Orson Wells direct more movies. He was a ****in' genius.

                  Another great Charlie Chaplin movie is Modern Times.

                      Seeing Charleton Heston play a Mexican is, well, weird.

                      The only problem with paths of Glory is the ending scene. Otherwise, brilliant! (one of the two movies I have actually bought. The second being Strangelove)

                                Night of the living dead.
                                It has easily the best ending ever
