Again some interesting movies to look up.  :thanks:
I own Pan's Labyrinth, The Orphanage and Sex and Lucía, but that leave seven more Spanish movies to research.
Always good to not get entirely mired in Hollywood movies.

I open a serie of "by decade" favourites. The first one covers 1930s-1940s, then I'll send 1950s, 1960s... until 2010s...
Of course, some movies I had already listed will be in those new lists, which allow to cross different genres.

1930s-1940s favourites

1 – Casablanca
   

2 -Le Quai des brumes

   
3 – Joan of Arc

   
4 – King Kong   


5 – La Belle et la Bête

   
6 – The Adventures of Robin Hood   

   
7 – Gone with the Wind   

   
8 – The Thief of Bagdad

   
9 – L'assassin habite au 21

   
10 – Key Largo

Key Largo is possibly Bogart's best movie.  He and Bacall were better together in To Have and Have Not .. but him personally .. i think this was his best work
Thank you
