I've seen that screencap many times but never seen the movie.

Jungle fever

Absolutely mind blowing what they were able to accomplish in 1933.

Any black and white movie what has Toshiro Mifune in it. One of the greatest human beings to ever exist and the only man badass enough to play both Toranaga (Tokugawa Ieyasu) AND Miyamoto Musashi.

Metropolis deserves a mention

Metropolis is awesome, but M is mah shit.

And if you like M, Testament of Dr. Mabuse is going to do it for you too.

Fury is a great pairing with M as well for subject matter...serves as a flip side of the same coin, and shows Lang's expertise with a more Hollywood-ish style.

How come nobody mentioned this masterpiece?

Saw this film when I was in college. Think I'm going to watch it again if I can find it. @shadow_priest_x

M
La strada
Seventh seal
City lights
Smiles of a summer night

For Chaplin.

I love Chaplin. City Lights is my favorite film of his, my favorite silent, and actually made me tear up a little at the end.

What people undervalue is that Chaplin was also a fantastic filmmaker in the Talkie era.

To this day, one of my favorite scenes in a movie:

The Third Man is fun.
Wasn't it written by Graham Green?
He wrote some weird stories. Brighton Rock was fun.

Yes he wrote the screenplay.

It is also the only British (or i guess non English) film to make the AFI top 100.

I wonder what the definition of a British film is. As in Psycho was done by a British director. The story by Bloch, though.

Off top of my head...

The Elephant Man
10 Rillington Place
The Day the Earth Stood Still
Man Bites Dog

Did you know that the voice of Chief Wiggum comes from that movie?

Best black on white movie of all time.
