favorite classic films

[pinolian79]

I have 2 all time favorite classic films
The first is Straight Jacket with Joan Crawford- She is so over the top and campy in that movie, but i love it

The other one is The Bad Seed- Eileen Heckert is so superb as the drunken Mrs. Dagel

Some Like It Hot and The Birds.

You know it is really hard to just pick one favorite. Ive gotta say The Birds is the best Hitchcock film ever. I only live about a hour and a half from Bodega Bay and go out to The Tides restaurant where The Birds was filmed the place is great and the drive is so calm and relaxing.................
