Frankly, I hate the current state of film and cinema. Most of the stuff I see coming out is the same shit that's been sold to us year after year, there's rarely any good storytelling, and very few films cater outside of the lowest-common denominator who can't hold a coherent polysyllabic thought longer than a commercial break. It's action, sex, CGI, and repetition.

Discuss your favorite older movies, and the odd newer one that gets the gears rolling!

I liked the 1945(?) film Sahara, with Humphery Bogart in it as a tank commander in North Africa in WWII. Another more movie I caught the last half of recently was the 1991 film Mindwalk, which was everything that New-Age cult promotion film What the Bleep Do We Know? wasn't, and more.

I'd also like to see Fritz Lang's Metropolis, I've seen an anime retelling of it, and I liked it a lot.
