I love old movies.

What is your favorite B&W old movie?

[BrotherBuzz]

1. The Mouse that Roared is my favorite B&W film, bar none.

B&W films have incredible detail - you can actually read book titles in the in library scenes, it's that crisp!

[MoseyWalker]

3. Isn't that amazing?

How they were so attuned to be able to make everything so, as you said, crisp?

2. Here are two black and white still images.

6. Grandma! I've missed you.

They told me you died in 1987, at the age of 92.

1854
With John and Ricka now Christmasing with friends in Philadelphia,
having left Geradstetten August 22nd, the family *****, which we
are most interested in at the moment, now 5 in number, were celebrating
their last Holiday season in Europe. What a world was widening for them!
What a distance from the two that had sailed on before; some 3000 miles,
one seventh of the earth's circumference! With prayers for long awaited work
from son and daughter in the United States of America, the days passed by
and time marched toward the moment of their departure from this age-old
homeland; the first entire ***** family to sever such a tie. Yes, this
Christmas time was to become an important epoch in not only the
Wurtemburg family but of even greater significance to us their descendants.
We were to be born A M E R I CA N !?!?!?!?!?!

8. P.S.

That woman in the middle IS my grandmother.

This picture was taken two years and some months
befor my father was born.
