Classic BW films

[Markymark]

My lovely wonderful wife is tired of just watching my films, apparently Jedis and super heroes is not her thing

"Get me some of my lovely BW films. I want to watch those. "

"Which ones?"

"I can't remember."

"Ok, who's in them?"

"Don't remember. Maybe Audrey Hepburn. Not sure"

"Singing, dancing what?"

"All sorts. "

Please help me!!

Brief Encounter is the type of thing women like (Some women that is, and some men too of course, just in case I get accused of having some hideous phobic tendency).

Or Rebecca. That's another one also liked by some women and some men.

Was it this one - Invasion of the Giant Woman?

Black and white films are great: especially the noir ones.

Kind Hearts and Coronets
Pretty much anything with Alec Guinness and Humphrey Bogart. Casablanca anyone?

if you've got Talking Pictures TV as a channel they show old B&W films, of the type were men were men and woman screamed hysterically until they were shaken and had water thrown in their face.

Casablanca
To Have and Have Not
The Big Sleep

Another vote for Brief Encounter.

Films with smoking and hats do it for me.
