Here is a list of old movies that I would recommend.

Texas Across the River. It is a comedy about the old west. Starring Dean Martin, Joey Bishop. I remember watching this movie when I was about 15 years old and it was so funny.

Some Like it Hot. A comedy starring Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis. Picture Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis disguised as women. Funny movie.

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. Another comedy about group of people on mad chase to be the first to find a large sum of money. The all-star cast includes Jimmy Durante, Milton Berle,Buddy Hacket, Ethel Merman, Sid Caesar and Spencer Tracy, just to name a few. It is a hilarious movie and fun to watch.

What are some of your favorite old comedy movies?

I love all the old Laurel and Hardy films and also the silent Charlie Chaplin ones. I have the complete collection of the Laurel & Hardy films and my grandchildren just fall around the place laughing at them. When I was very young, I used to go to the cinema to watch Old Mother Reilly. These were also hilarious films but I never hear much about Old Mother Reilly now. Must check them out on the internet.

One of my classic old comedy movies is called "Midnight Run" as is stars Robert DeNiro. It is so funny and love seeing it. I don't remember the other actors names in it but you should watch this one as well. It was made in the 80's I believe.


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)  6 years ago

One of my favorite comedies starring Robert DeNiro and Sean Penn is "We're No Angels". They are escaped prisoners who pose as priests in a monestary.

Bringing Up Baby with Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn is always a favorite, along with My Man Godfrey. Remember the Topper films, they were hilarious. So many of the old comedies are great and they cross over to today's generations - my son, who is 21, loves the Marx Brothers and Pink Panther movies, not to mention the Three Stooges. There are really too many great old comedies to list.


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)  6 years ago

Pink Panther movies are great.

myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)  6 years ago

Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder were so hilarious in this movie. We just had a conversation about this film a couple of nights ago. It is a must see if you want to tickle your funny bone.

Blazing Sadle is my favorite all time comedy film, not for the kiddies though. I beleive this was a Mel Brooks movie. I can't remember the whole cast but I know Gene Wilder played in it. I am a HUGE Wilder fan. I think it came out in the early 70's. Great movie!

I have too agree Blazing Sadles is a great old time comedy classic although due to it nature not the best.


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)  6 years ago

It was one of those movies that raised a brow or two!


myLot reputation of 92/100. gifana (2229)  6 years ago

Especially loved it when the Indians started talking in Yiddish.

I love old Barbra Streisand movies, like On a Clear Day You Can See Forever. The one in my mind now is avoiding letting me find it's name. It is the one about the musicologist, Oh, yeah, "What's Up Doc?". I laughed at that one until I cried.


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)  6 years ago

Barbra Streisand movies are so great!

Hi! I'll never forget the last line of "Some Like it Hot." One of the best last lines of a movie ever! LOL When we were kids, we used to watch the old Ma and Pa Kettle movies. We loved those!


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)  6 years ago

I was a huge fan of Ma and Pa Kettle. What a family! I wish could see them again. They were my warm fuzzies.

wow! i hadn't even thought of Texas Across the River in so long! I LOVE THAT MOVIE! I could watch it every week and not get tired of it...I like the original Herbie the Love Bug, Father Goose with Cary Grant, and one of my all time favorites, The Rounders, with Henry Fonda and Glenn Ford...they played 2 cowboys with a horse that gave them fits through the whole movie....hilarious!


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)  6 years ago

Father Goose! That was great!

Two of my favourites are The Court Jester, with Danny Kaye. I think it's far and away his best film. And The Princess Bride, which breaks all the rules of storytelling and is full of surprises. Great cast too.


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)  6 years ago

Loved the Princess Bride. My sister has it...guess I will have to borrow it!

Have fun stormin the castle!

My favorite old comedy movies although not 'old' by many peoples standards are the Hot Shots! films specifically Hot Shots! Part Deux, I remember first watching this and being blue in the face with laughter. Another [this time proper] classic as I commented earlier would have to be Blazing Sadles
