But, we do tend to forget the movies from the past which defined their own genre and enriched movie experience to the audience. Here is a list of such 15 Must-watch movies from the past-
15. The Big Lebowski
Movies have one or two qualities which make them good. But, this movie has more than two qualities to make it a great movie.It's brilliant on multiple levels. First, It's a very well-made movie. Second, humor. Third, Outstanding characters. Fourth, it is a very well-written movie. The aforementioned reasons have helped this movie become a cult. If you don't know 'The Dude', you don't know what is being Cool.
14. Goodfellas
This crime drama directed by Martin Scorsese helps us look into the life of a mob man Henry Hill. We witness the rise of a man who wanted to be a gangster all his life. Joe Pesci stands out with his amazing performance. Some of the best movie scenes came from improvisation by Joe Pesci and Ray Liotta.
13. When Harry Met Sally...
This movie is just a masterpiece of romance, comedy, and cinema itself. The chemistry between the couple is loveable. It might be your best romedy movie you have ever watched.
12. Blade Runner
One of the best visually stunning movies ever made. Ridley Scott has defined sci-fi genre with this movie. From the neon traffic lights to Big explosions. No other movie plays with light as Blade runner does. You need to watch this movie more than once to appreciate its brilliance.
11. Apocalypse Now
Francis Ford Coppola's Best movie till date. Marlon Brando's screen time in this movie is very less. But, his impact on the movie is the biggest. That is what separates from good actors to great actors. Wouldn't you just watch the movie for Brando's brilliant acting? I would.
I just love the smell of Napalm in the morning.
10. Monty Python and the Holy Grail
It is every bit as hilarious now as I watched this movie 4 years back. This comedic movie is the low-budget search of Holy grail by King Arthur and his knights. Terribly exciting and clever one-liners make it everyone's favorite mellow movie.
9. The Godfather
Movies have always been based on best novels for some time. But rarely, a movie is better than its Novel. Godfather is one of the movies which made it possible. Al Pacino has become big with his role of Michael Corleone in this movie. Moreover, Marlon Brando has again left a tremendous impact on the movie with the portrayal of Don Corleone.
I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse
8. 2001: A Space Odyssey
A mind-bending sci-fi symphony, Stanley Kubrick's landmark 1968 epic pushed the limits of narrative and special effects toward a meditation on technology and humanity. With its stunning visuals, it remains one of the greatest sci-fi film ever made.
7. Jaws
Everybody doubted Steven Spielberg before this film's release. But When this movie hit the theatres' everybody's doubts just flew away. It remains a classic horror movie of that era. It remains a benchmark in the art of storytelling in cinema.
6. The Sound of Music
There are many notable musicals Singin' in the Rain, Fiddler on the Roof and many more. But Sound of the Music is the greatest of them all. It is a charming movie filled with romance and kids.
5. Lawrence of Arabia
Lawrence of Arabia is known for its superb storytelling, long close-up moments, widescreen panorama and much more. Peter O’Toole made one of the most outrageously charismatic debuts in film history. Lawrence's love for Desert and with Arabs is beautiful to watch.
4. Rear Window
How often do you watch a movie which is based in just one room? Hitchcock is a master of suspense and psychological thriller movies. And this movie truly shows that. A photographer recuperating from his broken leg begins to spy his neighbors and comes across a shocking revelation. Sounds pretty boring. But, Hitchcock has the talent to make the audience become curious.
3. Casablanca
This movie has made it to the list of greatest films ever made. And for right reasons. Good script, direction and the greatest on-screen couple Bogart and Bergman. One of the best Romantic movies out there.
2. Stagecoach
One of the western films ever made. It is great because of the impact it laid upon the coming western movies. The movie became a template for the western movies and John Wayne became the Hollywood star. Suspense and interest remain peak throughout the movie.
1. City Lights
Charlie Chaplin's ability to make you laugh just by his actions is truly remarkable. This generation is mainly dominated by Stand-up comedy. So, a comedy by actions is not a small feat. This movie tells a story about a beautiful romance about loving someone for who they are not for their economic status.
