#78 Modern Times

1936
Starring: Charles Chaplin, Paulette Goddard
Director/Writer: Charles Chaplin

This was my first time watching a Charlie Chaplin movie, and it was his last 'silent' movie (there were sound effects, a few spoken lines, and some singing.)

In this movie, this poor guy can't catch a break, with the exception of meeting a woman to share his follies with.  Funny and entertaining, I enjoyed my first Chaplin flick.

Up next: All the Presidents Men

#79 The Wild Bunch

1969
Director: Sam Peckinpah

 

Starring: William Holden, Ernest Borgnine, Robert Ryan

Hate to say it but I didn't get this movie at all, or why it's on this list. I couldn't turn this one off fast enough!! Maybe I just don't like westerns...

#80 The Apartment

1960
Director: Billy Wilder
Starring: Shirley MacLaine, Jack Lemmon, Fred MacMurray

I liked this one, cute movie. Don't know if it's one of the best I've ever seen, but I enjoyed it!

#85 A Night at the Opera

1935

Starring: The Marx Brothers, Kitty Carlisle

Directed By: Sam Wood

Entertaining Marx brothers movie- actually, this was my first time watching one of their movies! I was entertained, but didn't love it.  I thought Groucho was the funniest of the 3.  

It's so funny to see how times have changed since this movie was made... in this movie, opera stars were major celebrities.  

I think there's another Marx brothers movie on the list, so I'll be interested to see which one I like better!

Up Next: Supposed to be Titanic but I think I'll wait until the 3-D release!! Soooo, up next really is The Apartment
