Classic 50s Movies: The Entire Series
May was Classic 50s Movies month on the blog. Here are 29 movies from that decade spotlighted by our distinguished group of guest posters:
Commander Cody: Sky Marshal of the Universe
Invasion of the Body Snatchers
How many of these movies have you seen? I have not seen Kiss Me Deadly, Night of the Demon, Pickpocket, Pickup on South Street, The File on Thelma Jordon, and Tokyo Story, but I intend to remedy that as they go on my Must See list based on the recommendation of GITS followers.
And that’s really the whole point of these decade by decade retrospectives we’ve undertaken over the last year or so: To motivate folks to watch movies. This practice, along with read scripts and write pages, are the foundation of any screenwriter’s education. Here are the other decades we’ve covered thus far, over 120 guest posts in total now stored in the GITS archives:
70s Movies
80s Movies
90s Movies
Thanks to everyone who has participated in this effort. You are helping create a resource to guide writers in what movies to watch and analyze, building up their base knowledge as they immerse themselves in the world of cinema.
Next up: The 40s. We’ll get to that a few months down the road.
In meantime… WATCH MOVIES!
