Miracle on 34th Street (You see, my mom is the manager who hired you)
Casablanca (Of all the joints in the world...)
A Tale of Two Cites (Recalled to Life)
Monkey Business (Terrified Tissue!)
Gone with the Wind - not technically b&w, but worth a mention!!! (I'll think about it tomorrow)
A Place in the Sun (Liz Taylor in her prime)
Some Like It Hot (We're the new girls! BRAND NEW!)
Father of the Bride (Spencer Tracy was great as the befuddled father)
A Little Princess (Shirley Temple - nuff said)
I know there's more. I absolutely LOVE old movies....

I cannot name just one - it sort of depends on my mood or maybe the time of year or something. So, I will list what I consider right now to be my top 10 old B/W movies but not in a particular order.
Yankee Doodle Dandy
The Strawberry Blonde
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington
It's A Wonderful Life
Angels With Dirty Faces
Dark Victory
Rebecca
Casablanca
Penny Serenade
His Girl Friday
There is one other black and white movie I really like, but it is from about 1980 - yes, it was made in black and white on purpose! It is The Elephant Man.

I am pretty sure Rear Window is in color. It is an excellent movie, but not for this thread, I guess.
Is Boy Meets Girl with James Cagney? If so, then that is one of his movies I don't think I have ever seen, but I think I may have seen a clip of it on a show about Cagney. I think I would really like that one. (If it's Cagney, it has to be a pretty bad Cagney movie for me not to like it, although I will say The Bride Came C.O.D. is not exactly one of his stellar movies, even though it has Bette Davis in it, too!)

Hmm, I could have sworn it was in black and white, but I checked and yeah, it is in color. I'm not sure why I remember it that way.
Boy Meets Girl does star James Cagney. I see that it has only a so-so rating on IMdB, but it seems like reviewers either think it's brilliant or absolutely hate it. Cagney plays a Hollywood screenwriter, the movie's kind of a farce about Hollywood and the studios. The two writers are trying to come up with a script and they're tired of doing the boy-meets-girl, boy-loses-girl, boy-gets-girl-back plot line.

Way too many to list, but my all-time favorite may just be Roman Holiday...I don't believe an actress has topped Audrey Hepburn's beauty or performance yet...
