Yes, beat me to it. Amazing cast

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Probably the oldest that I would have no issues watching over again would probably be:

Casablanca (1942)

Followed by:

Stalag 17 (1953)

Duck soup is a good pick. As is Wizard if Oz. I'll add It Happened One Night and Singin in the Rain. Really I just need to watch some more old movies.

 

[TheeFanatic]

1963

Seven Samurai and 12 Angry Men immediately came to mind. Had to check, looks like Seven Samurai wins by three years. Which is great, since it's also better.

 

[Fallout-NL]

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Leaned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964)

That's the one.

 

[sven]

Rio Bravo (1959) staring John Wayne, Dean Martin, Ricky Nelson, and Walter Brennan.

 

[Yerffej]

To Have and Have Not.

 

[Kill3r7]

Metropolis - 1927

 

[Kommodore]

Chaplin's Modern Times (1936). Such a beautiful and thoughtful reaction to Depression era America.

 

[Deleted member 2533]

I'd say The Thin Man, 1934. I genuinely like it and have seen it multiple times. I've enjoyed earlier films, but The Thin Man is probably the oldest that I'd honestly recommend to just about anyone.

 

[Brinbe]

the general? 1926 i guess

 

[SwampBastard]

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Leaned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964)

+1

This is a FANTASTIC film.

 

[Meows]

Bringing Up Baby (1938) - one of the funniest movies ever made starring Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant!

 

[Mona]

Casablanca (1942)
Rope (1948)
12 Angry Men (1957)
Dr Strangelove (1964)

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Probably Psycho.

 

[heavy liquid]

Probably The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928)

I've seen the rediscovered original version of it in the theater (before Covid, of course) a few times, and it was amazing.
