The Day the Earth Stood Still (1950)BTW, I concur wholeheartedly with many of your choices. Undoubtably everyone's list of memorable films will vary, but the films you've mentioned would probably be on many folk's "memorable" list. Just for fun though (i.e., if you don't mind), I think I'll add 25 of my faves from the years you've mentioned that weren't on your list; feel free to contribute opinions/observations.
