Wow, anything with the Marx Brothers, that stuff was just so perfectly entertaining.
I like old Harold Lloyd films.
I thought In Cold Blood was just a terriffic film. To Kill a Mockingbird, goes without saying.
Bringing Up Baby....Some Like it Hot might be (IS) my actual favorite.

Haha, Subvet named a few I'd forgotten. All the Thin man films are cool as $hit.
And Paper Moon WAS cool.

How could I forget Clerks?
Spartacus, one of my all time favorite films, is not a black and white film (the Kirk Douglas one anyways). It is an awesome film though.:tu

Re: Favorite B&W movies.
 

I am trying real hard to even think of a B&W movie I have seen that isn't listed here already!

But a couple of my favs:

Casablanca, Stalag 17.

Even some of my all time favorites, Danny Kaye's early flicks, were in color. Or at least colorized :)

Re: Favorite B&W movies.
 

Casablanca
Clerks

:tu

Re: Favorite B&W movies.
 

Just remembered another one..Or two.

Hud
Paul Newman and Patricia Neal. She the Oscar for Best Actress in a Leading Role for this film.

The Day The Earth Stood Still
Another Patricia Neal film and B&W Classic.
She passed away last Sunday..
RIP Patricia Neal

Re: Favorite B&W movies.
 

A Streetcar Named Desire

Re: Favorite B&W movies.
 

Schindlers List
Does it qualify since there is some color in the movie. The girl with red coat and the flame.

Re: Favorite B&W movies.
 

Most of my favorites are black and white.
Nearly everything directed by Kurosawa is one of my favorites including: Seven Samurai (as stated above) Ikiru, Red Beard, Throne of Blood, Sanjuro, and Yojimbo.
Casablanca
It's A Wonderful Life (and nearly every Capra movie as well)
There's really too many to list once I get rolling but many stated above qualify for me as well, especially Mockingbird.
