Discuss classic films (~1973 or earlier) that will hopefully bring more awareness of them as both entertainment as well as an art form.

The Lady Eve (1941) Barbara Stanwyck is a con-artist used to getting her way (with men especially). Henry Fonda's character is naive, sure but will he get tricked like the others have? It's pretty good, worth a watch.

Double Indemnity (1944) Somehow I've never watched this classic film-noir. Stanwyck is great in it, as usual. I didn't quite buy Fred MacMurray's falling for her so easily, but still a great film noir for the ages. Very "Hitchcockian".
