MovieWeb's 15 Quintessential Movies From the Boomer Generation

"Old-time cinema is a treasure trove of cinematic gems that have withstood the test of time. One generation that holds a special place in their hearts for classic cinema is the Baby Boomers. Born between 1946 and 1964, this generation grew up during a time of great cultural and social change and were witness to some of the most iconic moments in history. From the Vietnam War to the civil rights movement, the Boomers have lived through it all and have come out the other side with a deep appreciation for the movies that defined their youth. For Boomers, watching these classic films is not just about nostalgia; it's about reliving the moments that shaped their lives. They find comfort in the familiar faces of actors like Audrey Hepburn, James Dean, and Marilyn Monroe, and in the timeless stories of love, loss, and triumph. These movies are a window into their past, and they are happy to revisit them time and time again." - movieweb.com
