The Top Classic Movies From The Last Century

Psycho (1960)

Psycho is highly regarded as one of the best horror films ever. The Hitchcock (of course) film explores dark twists and even features the first-ever Scream Queen. This is an absolute cult classic. This film has even inspired other popular works like Bates Motel.

Mary Poppins (1964)

Julie Andrews made waves as Mary Poppins. Dick Van Dyke also brings to life a loveable yet bumbling chimney sweep who tries to woo Poppins herself. This film left behind a legacy and is a right of passage for any child.
