Old Classic movies never lose their charm. They are evergreen and never go out of style. The magic of old Classic movies remain in the hearts of million of fans forever. Old classic movies are generally personal favorites of many people. It becomes really difficult to choose some of the films from the vast ocean of creativity. Style and creativity team up together to make a movie classic. We will discuss a few old classic movies here.
Let's start with an all time favorite classic film, "Ben Hur". This is an epic movie, brilliantly made with effects and styles. The expensive sets and costumes make the film grander. The fighting scenes are immortal and it is a favorite with all ages. Charlton Heston played the title role and did an excellent job. Yule Breyner was as good and as wicked as ever. The grandeur of the Roman Empire has bewitched viewers all over the entire world.
Another film which is a real Classic, happens to be 'The Sound Of Music". An adjective will be inadequate to describe this brilliantly awesome film. An all time legend in its own right, this film has been a favorite from generation to generation. Set in the backdrop of World War I the film was shot in beautiful Austria. The songs are legendary and the actors, Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer and those seven little children of Captain VonTrapp were awesome.
Another vintage has got be "Gone With The Wind". It is a classic tale of romance, starring Clarke Gable and vivacious Vivian Leigh. The immortal character of Reth Butler played By Clarke Gable makes the film everlasting. Vivian Leigh never looked so beautiful. The film was shot brilliantly in a far west location.
Old Classics include all the works of the great master Charlie Chaplin. The wackiest of comedies created with great mastery in the silent era will always be like the monuments, which stand still even in the most adversities. "Lime Light" and "Great Dictator" happen to be my personal favorite. The great master created some brilliant magic on the screen in adverse conditions and when there were practically very little gears, which are needed to make a film. Even without sound the master created something that makes the viewers speechless.
Another old classic movie is "Cleopatra". The title character was played by Elizabeth Taylor. Her husband Richard Burton also played an important role in this film. A nicely shot film in the backdrop of Roman Empire, the film is one of a kind. Ravishing Elizabeth created a history with her attire and look as Cleopatra. She looked stunning in the film and acted radiantly. The film was a huge success in the Box Office.
Lastly, a film, which needs to be mentioned while talking about old classics is "Seven Brides For Seven Brothers" It is a very nice film to watch with lots of humorous scenes and nicely portrayed characters. It is a feel good movie with all the ingredients to make all the viewers happy and content at the end.
