For you, if you are interested in watching old movies, what would be your best movies from the 1950-1960s?
I would say that best movies, e.g. fantastic ones could be, according to my preferences:
- Rocketship xm
- phantom planet
- Day earth stood still (1951)
- voyage to prehistoric planet.
In the movie voyage to prehistoric planet, which you can retrieve freely over www.archive.org, what can we see into hte water at the very end?
Please post a link to video if it is freely available. Some >40-50y, usually, most is available on the web.

What? A Sci-Fi fan who didn't list Forbidden Planet? For shame! Original Invasion of the Body Snatchers wasn't bad, either.
For more "normal" Hero In Trouble fare, I like Gary Cooper films rather a lot, especially High Noon and Friendly Persuasion
I was kind of mad when they brought out ATSC but there are now three channels in my area that offer older movies. I'd recorded many of them and tend to prefer the film noir type with some crime issue. Many of those listed are top choices.
Distribution: Slackware64-current with "True Multilib" and KDE4Town.

OK
The movie was released in the U.S. in June of 1970. When you factor in the actual filming and post production (editing, etc.), June 1970 is close enough.
