In a recent conversation, two friends were lamenting the overwhelming size of their streaming service queues. Yes, they were discussing the dreaded phenomenon of movie overload (in public, no less!). Just as I was about to cover my ears from their cinematic woes, one of them proposed a bold idea: “Why not just get rid of any films made before you were born?” she suggested. “If you haven’t watched them yet, chances are you probably won’t.”
Now, I can imagine half of you nodding in agreement, thinking this was pure brilliance! Meanwhile, the other half may have fainted in disbelief. Let’s not worry about those who are down for now (though do get a pillow for their heads if you must and hurry back). For those of you who found this idea refreshing, this message is for you.
Believe it or not, there’s a treasure trove of excellent films that hit the silver screen long before you took your first breath. So many, in fact, that I could easily share weekly movie picks that were likely made before your time—some even in black and white! You might be surprised to learn that these classics share quite a bit in common with the films you currently enjoy, and you could end up adding them to your watchlist on Amazon Prime or elsewhere, discovering a whole new level of cinematic enjoyment!
