^^ Thanks for such a great list of recommendations everyone. I hope I got you all with the rep points. I will start adding these onto my netflix list. If you can think of any more feel free to through them my way.
'A Tree Grows in Brooklyn' is a great film.
I also agree with the other films posted. Bette Davis films are a must see.
Especially, 'Whatever Happened to Baby Jane'.

Um, disqualification...Rope and The Man Who Knew Too Much are in color.
I would add: All This and Heaven, Too (Bette Davis) Notorious (Ingrid Bergman and Cary Grant...does it get any better?) Gaslight (more Ingrid Bergman) The Great Dictator (Charlie Chaplin...love his speech at the end) The Scarlet Empress (Marlene Dietrich as a ruthless Catherine the Great; stunningly provocative for its' time)
Ooops, I just remembered some Sidney Poitier films:
A Raisin in the Sun They Call Me Mr. Tibbs Guess Who's Coming to Dinner
Love all of these!!! Not to mention the incomparable Mr. Poitier. Don't forget Lilies of the Field...one of my faves, so beautiful in its' simplicity.
A friend of mine, a flight attendant, served him on a NY to LA run years ago and ending up spending most of the flight conversing with him. She said he was without a doubt one of the nicest and most charming people she had ever met. Be still my heart!
Oh, and A Patch of Blue...also B&W, so it qualifies!
