What a great movie.

I'll add:

And Then There Were None (the one on the island)
Duck Soup
A Night at the Opera
Animal Crackers


The Bank Dick
It's A Gift
Never Give a Sucker an Even Break
You Can't Cheat an Honest Man
International House

These last five are from my favorite comedian of all time.

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.

I was wondering about that one too. I think maybe the original was B&W, then Ted had it colorized and that is the version most likely to be aired on the movie channels.

I too think Cool Hand Luke was color. But one of the best scenes in movie history. Two words: Car wash.

Liberty Valance. Good one Scott, one of my fav's for both John Wayne and James Stewart.

Nope, Hitchcock shot it in color.

However, I would add Hitchcock's Psycho to this list (if it hasn't been mentioned already).

EDIT: Seems it was mentioned in the first post!
