Far, far too many to name.

Two that come to mind are To Kill a Mockingbird and Schindler's List.

Cabinet of Dr. Caligari..Intolerance..****in' Nosferatu..the majority of the best B&W's were also silent movies, IMO.

Silent in that there was so spoken dialogue. Is this a trick question?

For me, it's Casablanca. And it was also released in technicolor.

Totally agree, amazing film. Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, and Nosferatu also agree with. smile

The Lady Vanishes for me also, my absolute favourite of Hitchcock's films.

King Kong was okay, but very funny. I had to laugh at the awful acting and special effects, lol
To Kill A Mockingbird was good, also.

I haven't seen too many black and whites, so that's about all.
