The 1960s in film. It was the decade-in-flux internationally; in America, the decade when the Hollywood studio system crumbled and "new Hollywood" entered the fray. The old masters were still hard at work though, as movies reinvented themselves. Here's a list of ten classic 1960s films that have managed so far to elude me, but I've got them on my radar:Sons and Lovers— 1960
Yojimbo— 1961
David and Lisa— 1962
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance— 1962
Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow— 1963
The Night of the Iguana— 1964
Repulsion— 1965
A Man and A Woman— 1966
In Cold Blood— 1967
Playtime— 1967

First of all I would say "Playtime" is my pick for favorite on that list. "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" is amazing and "Yojimbo" is classic Kurosawa. Other than that, I haven't seen the others on your list. I have wanted to see "Night of the Iguana" and "Sons and Lovers for a long time.
I really like Richard Burton-- and IGUANA plays all the time on TCM, so I'll be looking out for it. I'm actually quite horrified that I STILL haven't seen THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE!
