Am I an asshole? Do I look like an asshole?

And TV too… I guess most people had not fired a snub nosed 38 and realized how unlikely hitting the target is at any distance…

Yeah, someone had a video about gun fights in movies and TV shows: six-shot revolvers that fire nine or more times without being reloaded, M-16s or whatever being fired on full automatic long after the magazine would be empty, etc. Also, they rarely show how deafening the noise is, especially inside a room or building.

Here's another one with some unlikely gun play. "All right, Garza, we give you 100% in acrobatics." Hint: it was made year before White Heat.

As I get older, I find I enjoy “modern” movies and tv shows less and less, so I would suck at that. But please feel free to make another thread for exactly that!

I've noticed that some old movies that could have been done in color are actually more effective in black-and-white. Hard to say why, but they they seem more believable by not being in Technicolor or whatever. White Heat is one. Also, A Night to Remember, Paths of Glory, Sunset Boulevard. Kubrick used black-and-white as late as 1962 in Lolita.

Peter Sellers is just - creepy somehow. That lady he's dancing with is at least 25 years ahead of her time with that "punk" look she's got.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

Treasure of sierra madre- a true classic

By the way, the woman dancing with Sellers is the late Marianne Stone, a British actor who was at or near forty when the movie was filmed. Although never a star, she had about 272 acting credits.

Humphrey Bogart was such a natural actor that anything he did was impressive. He could've just read out of the phone book and it would've been amazing.

What gets me are some of the big-budget movies that were done in black and white in the early 60's. The Longest Day had about every American film star and half the European ones, but they did a cinematic epic about D-Day in B&W.

Black and white had more verisimilitude for people growing up with news reels and newspapers.

Color was for lavish musicals and comedies or melodramas

"Go this way really fast. If something gets in your way, turn"
