Friday nights are family movie night at our house, and lately, we've been especially enjoying old movies. In my newsletter last week, I asked readers for recommendations of their favorite movies from the 1970s and earlier, and they came through in a big way! I got so many great suggestions that I just had to share them here. I hope you'll find some to enjoy as well!
(Just a note that there are newer remakes of many of these movies, but for the purposes of this list, I'm looking at the originals. I tried to stick with movies that are rated G, although of course, some older movies and musicals don't have ratings.)
