MovieWeb's 20 Classic Movies Everyone Should Watch at Least Once

"Let's be honest, sometimes classics are overhyped. Whether it be literature or films, it's easy for people to claim classics are better simply because they're older, and it's an opportunity to unfairly criticize modern creatives. However, there are some classics that stand the test of time, and it's easy to understand why they remain held in such high regard years after they were released. Classic films are easily identifiable, not simply from more identifiable markers like silent or black-and-white films. The way the actors speak, the dialogue, how it's shot — these all give a distinctive vintage feel that can transport viewers to another time. And while some may feel obligated to watch classics to understand modern references, others are quite enjoyable and can contend with movies today. Here are 20 classic movies everyone should watch at least once." - movieweb.com
