At b&wm.com we are movie fans first and movie critics second. We aim to provide recommendations for classic old movies you will enjoy, and interesting and funny comments about those you have seen. We try not to overload you with information - if you want to know the names of the production crew, and the facts and figures about the film's release, that information is available elsewhere.

We also try not to treat these classic old movies with too much reverence. A film that was popular sixty years ago because of a groundbreaking technique or unexpected plot development, might seem dated or clichéd today. Other movies though, have acquired a certain charm as they have aged, precisely because of their old-fashionedness.

What we do aim to do, is to consider not whether the movie was impressive when it was first released, but whether it would still be enjoyed today by a modern audience (and there are plenty old black and white movies that do fit into that latter category). If, like us, you love movies, but are looking for an alternative to the recent Hollywood special effect extravaganzas, then we invite you to look around this site for our recommendations of classic old movies. You won't be sorry.
