Raj-

the good, the bad & the Ugly is a awesome spaghetti western. Though they are not classic yet, I also like the Pink Panther series(slapstick Peter Sellers comedy as inspector), The Party(again Peter Sellers destroying a Hollywood director's house party), Charlie & the chocolate factory- based on a great children's book. Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka is amazing, great songs as well. (plus anything else Gene Wilder has done), the Jerk(standard Steve Martin slapstick comedy) & Fiddler on the Roof(great musical about a village Jewish community in pre-bolshevik revolution Russia & a fine example of MGM in the musical heyday era where Bollywood took some cues from. Topol is wonderful as the lead role)

Omar Sharif is a good actor, i have only seen his two movies
In the current age i like the acting and roles of Johnny Depp and Leonardo da Caprio.

You guys haven't been touched by a "classic" until you've watched:
The Seven Samurai, by Akira Kurosawa.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned "2001: A Space Odyssey" yet

2001 was a good flick, however not his best. Another one I left out was Dr. Strangelove, also a good movie. very funny with a dark look at warfare.

OK Biggie, you got it! Went back and added some info. You are right that makes more sense than just listing names.

The latest movie i watched was The Lawrence of Arabia. Great acting by both Omar Sharif and Peter O'Toole. The rest are also marvelous. The direction is pretty good.
