For me, I think I've only watched one new one.

Bombshell (1933) I really wanted to see a "scandalous" pre-code and this was recommended. I can imagine that it was a bit shocking 90+ years ago but no longer. I thought actually the story was interesting and found it rather modern in the ways we view and treat celebrities today. Worth a watch.

It might have been two months ago, but I saw Funny Girl (1968) recently and loved it. It's amazing to see the start of someone so prolific and to understand their career as a result.

Barbara Streisand may be known more on the internet by her effect, but she was and still is a huge talent!

That was my take too, it was cool seeing her early on in her career.

Just saw A Thousand and One Nights (1945), and cannot for the life of me figure out what Phil Silvers was doing in that movie. He was so out of place.

Haven't seen it but yeah, he needs the right type of file for sure.

Discuss classic films (~1973 or earlier) that will hopefully bring more awareness of them as both entertainment as well as an art form.
