What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? with Bette Davis and Joan Crawford. I found the movie a bit odd even by today's standards, and I can only imagine how far out people thought it was when it was originally released in 1962.

I was wondering about that one too. I think maybe the original was B&W, then Ted had it colorized and that is the version most likely to be aired on the movie channels.

I too think Cool Hand Luke was color. But one of the best scenes in movie history. Two words: Car wash.

Liberty Valance.:tu Good one Scott, one of my fav's for both John Wayne and James Stewart.

Nope, Hitchcock shot it in color.

However, I would add Hitchcock's Psycho to this list (if it hasn't been mentioned already).

EDIT: Seems it was mentioned in the first post!

Lots of good movies listed here. I loved the Kurosawa films and stuff by The Marx Brothers.

I would add a few:
Maltese Falcon
The Wild One
The Great Dictator
Modern Times
Raging Bull
Rumble Fish
