What older movies made a good use of either side stepping special effects or have effects that somehow still hold up today? Why are they good movies?

I can’t believe I haven’t seen a mention for The Thief of Bagdad.

https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0033152/

When you watch it you won’t believe it was made 85 years ago.

Roger Ebert reviewed it stunningly. https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/the-thief-of-bagdad-1940
