250 Essential Films of the 1960s (1960-1969)

Beginning in the middle of the decade due to the start of the cultural revolution and the abolition of the Hays Code, films became increasingly experimental and daring and were taking shape of what was to define the 1970s. Historical drama films continued to include epics evolving with 20th-century settings, such as Lawrence of Arabia. Dr. Strangelove set a new standard for satire by turning a story about nuclear holocaust into a sophisticated black comedy. The spaghetti westerns, were typified by Clint Eastwood films, such as For a Few Dollars More or The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Science-fiction or fantasy films employed a wider range of special effects, as in the original of The Time Machine or with animated aliens or mythical creatures, as in the Harryhausen animation for Jason and the Argonauts. Some extensive sets were built as in space-station and spaceship sets for the epic 2001: A Space Odyssey and with ape-city in the original Planet of the Apes.
