1. 101 Dalmatians
   The Jungle Book (I)
2. Peter Pan
   Robin Hood

For most Boomers and Gen X'ers, this is "our" Jungle Book. The classic Disney touch makes the songs infectious, and what kid didn't dream at some point about running off to the jungle?

1. Cleopatra
   Ben-Hur
2. The 10 Commandments
   Lawrence of Arabia

In the annals of movie spectacles, few productions come close to touching "Cleopatra" for wretched excess. It won four Oscars, all in the production categories, because there simply wasn't another movie that garish on the slate.

1. Midnight Cowboy
   Easy Rider
2. Bonnie and Clyde
   For a Few Dollars More

Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway created one of the most enduring couples in movie history with this film. I've always wondered if the Eagles' "Life in the Fast Lane" was an homage to the film.

1. Dr. Zhivago
   The Bridge of the River Kwai
2. Goldfinger
   Lawrence of Arabia

Among the times he was overlooked for a best actor Oscar in his career, this was the most egregious for Peter O'Toole. He struts, barks and completely owns this epic David Lean war movie.

1. The Graduate
   Midnight Cowboy
2. Bonnie and Clyde
   Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

"Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me." Is there a more iconic quote in dramatic movie history? Mike Nichols won the Oscar for best director for this movie, which launched Dustin Hoffman's career.

1. Easy Rider
   Five Easy Pieces
2. The Graduate
   Bonnie and Clyde

Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper play the leads in this most iconic of counterculture movies. As hippies Wyatt and Billy, they sell some pot, stash the money and take off on their motorcycles across the country, meeting slices of life along the way.

1. Mary Poppins
   The Sound of Music
2. Oliver!
   Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Is there an English-speaking corner of this planet where singing the opening lines of the title song won't get at least a few smiles? OK, well maybe not at the coroner's office ... but anywhere else!

1. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
   Cool Hand Luke
2. The Great Escape
   For a Few Dollars More

Here we have Paul Newman and Robert Redford, two of the all-time biggest names in the movie business, in their greatest movie together. To this day, "Let's go to Bolivia!" is a favorite tagline when things aren't going well.

1. In the Heat of the Night
   The Graduate
2. Midnight Cowboy
   Bonnie and Clyde

To say this movie made waves when it came out is to put it mildly. It garnered an "X" rating and the friendship between Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman's characters was ... controversial, to say the least.

1. Cleopatra
   Spartacus
2. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
   Lawrence of Arabia

Russell Crowe in "Gladiator" owes a huge debt to Kirk Douglas in this movie. The plot is very similar, and Douglas' domination of the screen is rivaled only by Crowe in full throat, screaming, "Are you not entertained?"

1. The Great Train Robbery
   Dr. Zhivago
2. The Great Escape
   Alcatraz

People who think of James Garner as Jim Rockford would be well-advised to see this classic. He plays Hendley "The Scrounger," a member of a band of soldiers bent on escaping a prison camp.

1. Beneath the Planet of the Apes
   Planet of the Apes
2. Escape from the Planet of the Apes
   Mysterious Island

Here's the original that created the empire, with Charlton Heston as the lost astronaut and Roddy McDowall as the helpful ape. The last scene, with Heston stumbling across the Statue of Liberty on the beach, is a complete classic.

1. Dr. Strangelove
   Mary Poppins
2. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
   Oliver!

Here's something you probably didn't know: The book on which the movie was based was penned by none other than the Father of Bond himself, Ian Fleming. I guess after you design a car with missile launchers, making one that flies isn't such a stretch.

1. 2001: A Space Odyssey
   Dr. Strangelove
2. Silent Running
   Dark Star

This is one of the most polarizing science fiction movies ever made. While most aficionados praise it for groundbreaking special effects, a unique plot and the use of the soundtrack, more modern sci-fi fans decry it as slow and ponderous. It does have a serious lack of explosions and laser cannon battles, but I've always loved it.

1. The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane
   Rosemary's Baby
2. Psycho
   Vertigo

What is it about the tale of Norman Bates that has so embedded itself in the American psyche? There have been dozens of remakes, re-imaginings, sequels and prequels since the original. Hitchcock's shower scene is still one of the classic jump-scares of all time.

1. An American in Paris
   Grease
2. West Side Story
   Easy Rider

This movie musical was also a dramatic powerhouse, taking 10 Oscars. Rita Moreno won for best supporting actress, launching her decades-long career.

1. Mary Poppins
   Flubber
2. My Fair Lady
   Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

This may be the most British of the live-action Disney movies of the '60s and '70s. Julie Andrews and her magic umbrella became an iconic character almost immediately, and there's a remake in the works for late 2018.

1. Lawrence of Arabia
   The Bridge on the River Kwai
2. Doctor Zhivago
   My Fair Lady

Nobody does sweeping historical epics like David Lean. He's like Cecil B. DeMille with a lot fewer sequins. This one covers a love story that goes through the Russian Revolution and World War I.

1. Cool Hand Luke
   The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
2. The Great Escape
   The Longest Yard

This is Paul Newman at his tortured tough-guy best. He plays the title character, who's locked up in a rural prison but escapes frequently, until the prison goons beat him down.

1. Lawrence of Arabia
   Hush...Hush Sweet Charlotte
2. A Time to Kill
   To Kill a Mockingbird

Gregory Peck played Atticus Finch in this career-making role. While the sequel to the book cast Atticus as a closet racist, in this film he's a paladin for the cause of racial equality and justice for all.

1. Once Upon a Time in the West
   Barbarella
2. Silent Running
   Dr. Strangelove

This is the movie Jane Fonda likely wishes she could forget. She plays a space vixen whose primary role appears to consist of wearing a variety of revealing outfits.

1. My Fair Lady
   Macbeth
2. Romeo and Juliet
   West Side Story

These days, when a Shakespeare adaptation hits the screen, it's usually studded with big-name stars trying to get a little Bard cred on their resumes. This one, my favorite filmed version of the play, had young Olivia Hussey and Michael York and not a lot else. Franco Zeffirelli's direction, though, made it a masterpiece.

1. The Little Shop of Horrors
   Dr. Strangelove
2. The Raven
   The Terror

If you've seen the musical version with Steve Martin as The Dentist, this original might be a shock. It's a Roger Corman classic, which means cheesy production values and lurid colors.

1. Hombre
   Hush...Hush Sweet Charlotte
2. Psycho
   The Manchurian Candidate

Paul Newman plays a stagecoach passenger who's snubbed by his fellow passengers because he was raised by Indians. Their opinion changes when he becomes their only hope, when the coach is beset by outlaws.

1. The Searchers
   True Grit
2. The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
   Stagecoach

With Jimmy Stewart and John Wayne topping the list, there was surely no lack of gravitas on the cast. Lee Marvin plays the title character, a brutal outlaw who terrorizes a town in a territory seeking statehood.

1. Rosemary's Baby
   The Exorcist
2. The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane
   The Apartment

This movie was almost unfair with the number of phobias it touched on. Every parent who's ever worried about creepy neighbors or relatives was given sleepless nights by this Ira Levin classic.

1. For a Few Dollars More
   The Dirty Dozen
2. Kelly's Heroes
   The Battle of the Bulge

You might get a hint of Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" here, and you wouldn't be too far off. In this case, a squad of a dozen hardened criminals (murderers) are trained to go on an assassination spree of the Nazi high command.

1. Psycho
   Rope
2. The Birds
   Vertigo

When I go out on the porch to sip my morning coffee and discover I've forgotten to fill the birdfeeder, this movie always comes to mind. Not recommended viewing for ornithologists or those living in coastal areas where lots of birds congregate.

1. The Magnificent Seven
   The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
2. Unforgiven
   For a Few Dollars More

Would there have been a Clint Eastwood without Sergio Leone? Here's another classic western with both names on it. This one concerns a race for gold thought to be buried in a cemetery.

1. That Darn Cat
   Freaky Friday
2. Pollyanna
   The Parent Trap

Divorce was still something of a taboo subject in the early '60s, especially when it came to kids' movies. This one, with Hayley Mills playing a dual role as teenage twin sisters, was a Judy Blume-level course in comic compensation, as the sisters scheme to get their divorced folks back together.

1. To Kill a Mockingbird
   The Apartment
2. Alphaville
   Cape Fear

Robert Mitchum plays a bad-guy role as a released convict who returns to terrorize the man who put him behind bars. Honestly, Robert DeNiro does a better job in the remake, but this one's worth seeing.

1. Wagon Train
   A Fistful of Dollars
2. Once Upon A Time in the West
   The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

It's Eastwood and Leone again, making another Western classic. This time, Clint plays a wandering gunfighter who plays two families off against each other.

1. My Fair Lady
   Mary Poppins
2. The Sound of Music
   Breakfast at Tiffany's

Based on "Pygmalion," this comedic classic features Rex Harrison and Audrey Hepburn at the height of her power. The plot seems horridly misogynistic in today's society, but for its time this was pretty hilarious stuff.

1. My Fair Lady
   It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World
2. Breakfast at Tiffany's
   Funny Face

Even if you don't know the movie, it's likely you know the music. Henry Mancini's classic, "Moon River," written for the film, won the Oscar for best original song.

1. Bridge on the River Kwai
   It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World
2. From Russia With Love
   Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

Whether you're a hawk or a dove, you'll find something to love about this flick. It's quite possibly the best satire of politics and military incompetence ever filmed.

1. The Magnificent Seven
   A Fistful of Dollars
2. True Grit
   Unforgiven

Based on an Akira Kurosawa classic, this ultimate Western has influenced hundreds of other films. A group of gunslingers from disparate backgrounds unite to defend innocent townsfolk from encroaching evil.

1. My Fair Lady
   The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane
2. Romeo and Juliet
   Lolita

While Vladimir Nabokov's original book is fairly dark, this movie takes a far different angle. It's played as a black comedy, which somehow makes the concept of an old man falling in love with a young girl even more creepy.

1. The Magnificent Seven
   Once Upon a Time in the West
2. For a Few Dollars More
   The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Sergio Leone is at it again, this time with Henry Fonda and Claudia Cardinale leading his Western cast. A widow hiding from an assassin hired by the railroad needs a harmonica-playing gunslinger's help to escape. Note: At no point is the harmonica used as a weapon.

1. True Grit
   The Magnificent Seven
2. Wagon Train
   Unforgiven

The iconic original stars John Wayne as drunken U.S. Marshal Rooster Cogburn, one of his most emotionally complex roles. The remake got Oscar love, but for Western purists nothing can match the Duke's original.

1. Dead Ringer
   Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte
2. What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?
   Sunset Boulevard

Bette Davis chews more scenery as an aging Southern belle who's concealing a dark secret from her past. She might or might not have brutally murdered her married lover decades in the past, but the issue will soon come to a head, thanks to a mysterious visitor.

1. The Magnificent Seven
   Unforgiven
2. For a Few Dollars More
   A Fistful of Dollars

This Sergio Leone classic western was elevated by having Clint Eastwood (so young!) and Lee Van Cleef heading the cast. There are many iconic shots from the movie, most notably the one of Eastwood in a dingy serape, hat askew with a cigarette dangling from his lip.

1. You Only Live Twice
   Dr. No
2. Goldfinger
   From Russia With Love

Beginning a long history of Bond villains with goofy names was Auric Goldfinger. How would you not meet a guy named Goldfinger and figure out he was nefarious?

1. Sunset Boulevard
   Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
2. Hush...Hush Sweet Charlotte
   What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?

The most talented frenemies in Hollywood history, Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, own the screen and chew the scenery in this one. They play sisters who've been acting rivals their whole lives, until one is confined in a wheelchair and left to the mercy of the other one.

1. Eegah!
   Manos: The Hands of Fate
2. The Wild, Wild World of Batwoman
   Pod People

Here it is, folks! By many critics' estimations, this is the worst movie ever made. Even the sharp-tongued savants of "Mystery Science Theater 3000" ran out of jokes about 2/3 of the way through the movie.

1. El Dorado
   The Sons of Katie Elder
2. Rio Bravo
   True Grit

John Wayne and Robert Mitchum team up in this post-Civil War Western. A battle over water rights brings the two old hands to the aid of a rancher and his family.

1. The 7th Voyage of Sinbad
   Journey to the Center of the Earth
2. Clash of the Titans
   Jason and the Argonauts

This was one of stop-motion monster master Ray Harryhausen's masterpieces. For the time, the special effects were amazing. There are tons of small continuity errors in the film, which had a whopping (for the time) million-dollar budget, but it's tremendous fun.

1. High Plains Drifter
   A Fistful of Dollars
2. The Outlaw Josey Wales
   Hang 'Em High

If there's one thing we've learned in the movies, it's that you don't ever want to make Clint Eastwood angry. In this one, he plays a man wrongfully lynched and left for dead, who returns as a lawman looking for revenge.

1. Dr. No
   From Russia with Love
2. Goldfinger
   The Dirty Dozen

Ursula Andress melts the screen as the consummate Bond babe, Honey Ryder. Oh, there's also some shooting, punching and other secret agent stuff. Sean Connery stars as 007.

1. Beach Blanket Bingo
   Lost Beach
2. Catalina Caper
   On the Beach

Don't beat yourself up if you don't remember this movie. There's a silly plot about a stolen scroll and mysterious strangers, seemingly spontaneous dance numbers and bikinis for absolutely no reason. We're sure it'll become a Netflix series soon.

1. Psycho
   Peeping Tom
2. Eyes Without a Face
   The Innocents

If you think media-themed horror is a new thing, this 1960 movie will change your mind. A sicko murders women, using a movie camera to record their final moments.
