"Laura" very film noir; smart script, good acting, you'll LOVE it!
Also "All About Eve", Bette Davis.

12 Angry Men... a thought-provoking movie with an awesome cast. You'll recognize some of the names, but maybe not John Fiedler. Close your eyes and listen to his voice, then think Winnie the Pooh.
Here's the movie description from Wikipedia
12 Angry Men is a film produced in 1957, which tells the story of twelve jurors bound by the acceptance of their civic duty and thrust together into a hot, humid room to deliberate the guilt or innocence of a boy accused of killing his father in a moment of rage. Initially, only one juror is not certain beyond a reasonable doubt that the young man is guilty, and must convince his peers to evaluate the matter beyond their initial emotion-based judgments. With the exception of three minutes of screen time split between the beginning and the end and a short conversation in the adjoining washroom, the entire movie takes place in the jury room.
A study of contrasts in human character under the stress of grave responsibility, the movie's stars have been described as one of the finest ensembles of character actors ever assembled, and includes Henry Fonda, Lee J. Cobb, Ed Begley, John Fiedler, E.G. Marshall, Jack Warden, Ed Binns, Martin Balsam, Jack Klugman, George Voskovec, Robert Webber, and Joseph Sweeney (his last appearance in motion pictures).
12 Angry Men is highly regarded from both a critical and popular viewpoint; Roger Ebert lists it as one of his "Great Movies", and it has been consistently ranked in the top 30 of the Internet Movie Database Top 250 List.

Sabrina 1954 not 1995. An Affair to Remember 1957. Rear Window 1954.
Those are my favorites. And I just looked them up, but they seam to be colorized. I didn't notice that before. hmmm.
I don't like Breakfast at Tiffany's or All About Eve. Though it looks like they were colorized too....

The Manchurian Candidate (original with Frank Sinatra). That has a LOT of drama in it. I think you would really like it. It has a nice twist at the end too.

How about a fairly new black and white film. Try out the Johnny Depp flick Dead man.
