I love this - I have so many recs :) I took an American cinema class my last semester in college that completely changed me (I really think that if I’d taken it earlier things would have been very different). A few years later I watched all 100 films on the AFI top 100 list (the second version I think) - while not all of them were worth it, I did find a lot to love. My favorite is It Happened One Night with Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert. I also love anything Audrey Hepburn, Sabrina and Breakfast at Tiffany’s being my favorites...and Charade! Love Katherine Hepburn, especially The Philadelphia Story and Bringing Up Baby. I also really love a lot of Hitchcock, particularly his earlier British films like Rebecca and The Lady Vanishes. I could on but that’s probably enough :)
Ahhhhh, thank you so much for the recommendations! An American cinema class sounds fascinating. I took a psychology of film course in college, which was where I saw my first Hitchcock film! I think Audrey Hepburn was my gateway into classic cinema though. I'm bumping up all those recommendation on my to-watch-next list. :)
