[QUOTE="Desdichado, post: 2294900, member: 2205"] It was just released on DVD a few months ago -- and yes, it's on my Netflix queue and my short list of DVDs to buy, both. I'd recommend [i]The Adventures of Robin Hood[/i] also with Errol Flynn and Olivia de Haviland, who was quite possibly the most beautiful woman to ever grace the silver screen. Heck, I think Grace Kelly is one of the only other ones in the same league. [i]Where Eagles Dare[/i] is another great flick with Richard Burton and Clint Eastwood. And [i]so many[/i] dead Nazis. Someone once told me that this movie held the record for the highest body count for over 15 years; until the second Rambo movie got made, as a matter of fact. I don't know if its true or not, but it's believable. The [i]Ivanhoe[/i] that stars Robert Taylor and Elizabeth Taylor is great fun. Someone else mentioned [i]The Court Jester[/i] and I heartily second that one. I'm also a sucker for a few of the classic musicals; [i]Singin' in the Rain[/i] was always my favorite, but I'll take [i]Oklahoma[/i] or [i]Kismet[/i] or some of the others; although sadly [i]Kismet[/i] is [i]not[/i] available on Netflix, and probably not on DVD at all. [i]Hatari![/i] was always my favorite John Wayne movie, set in Africa in the 50s where Wayne leads a band of lovable ruffians who catch animals for zoos for a living. There's a lot of good westerns out there; it's hard to even know where to begin. [i]True Grit[/i] and it's sequels, the spaghetti westerns [i]A Fist Full of Dollars[/i] etc., [i]Winchester 76[/i]... I like old movies. If all you want is old, I could go on for hours. Maybe if you narrowed it down a bit? [/QUOTE]
