Milk River Madman chose Best Black and White Movies as this week’s theme.
The quintessential Christmas movie
Ruf’s favourite movie
And a film that just stays in the memory – possibly because it was made in black and white in a technicolour age.

Yes! – three truly great movies. I love black and white. Enjoying your blog :)
Great choices all JC. I remember acting out 12 Angry Men when we read it in junior high. Schindler’s List was as powerful a movie as I’ve seen in 20 years. You’re not ever late. I’m always posting Tuesday evening as I’m west of so many who participate I need to have my clip up. Happy MCW.
I absolutely love It’s A Wonderful Life. That, and Sergeant York are definitely my favorite B&W Jimmy Stewart movies. I liked his color Hitchcock films as well, especially Vertigo.
Schindler’s List left me in awe. One of the most powerful movies I’ve ever seen. That red cloak gave me absolute chills.

Good evening Joanna,
Fine choices all three. As I think you know your first was my favorite. There’s a crisp quality to black and white films that just seems to make them better.
Hope you had a fine clip day!

It’s a Wonderful Life is my all time favorite Christmas movie. I watch it every year. I also like 12 Angry Men. Fonda was really good in it. I have yet to see Schindler’s List and I don’t know why. I just never had the opportunity. I like that you went old and new school and I did the same. I think everyone gets use to seeing B&W flicks as old and it’s just not true.
Happy MCW!
Hey Guys, It was purely by good fortune that I came across a list of modern black and white movies. I had completely forgotten that Schindlers List and Raging Bull were in black and white. But somehow that added to the atmosphere of both stories.
