Favorite Movies of the 50s?

Hi,

For the most part it's all the great big names of the history of cinema, although Luis Bunuel is not well represented at all ... for me, the subtitles was not a problem, though in the case of Luis's stuff in the subtitles were so bad that I spent the whole time laughing at them and the audience laughing at me, though some people finally figured out what was going on ... in one example, there were so many "4 letter words" in it, that you wouldn't get it (even the slang part) unless you were aware of it, and academia doesn't teach the ... street side of the language! (so to speak!)

The American side was a bit later for me, though I did not really got to it as much until the university days as a directing major ... when I learned more about the Actor's Studio and the 50's folks that made it, though some ended up in Hollywood ... but Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller, and others ... were already known in our house and I had read some of them. But I knew no English before October 1965, so yo can have a better idea how tough it was to read these things then, but later I caught up with them.

The sci-fi stuff that had Bernard Herrmann's music is also far out ... and I still like it a lot. The creativity involved is amazing.
