I have a friend that has seen absolutely none of the classics. We watched Casablanca last week, we are watching Gone With The Wind tonight, and next week we'll watch the African Queen. Anyone have any thoughts about what I should add to the list?

"Bringing Up Baby" & "My Favorite Wife" ....both are Cary Grant movies ....also "Arsenic & Old Lace"
"Harvey" , "You can't take it with You" , "The Shop around the Corner" all with Jimmy Stewart
"Double Indemnity" Barb Stanwick & Fred MacMurray
for a few
another must-see is "The Man Who Came To Dinner" (B&W) with Bette Davis, Billie Burke & Monty Wooley - classic humor @ it's best
another good one: "Adam's Rib" with Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn, also David Wayne and Judy Holliday. The Tracy/Hepburn duo at their best!
