Favourite films of the 1960s. One film per year.

[Mike D]

I found this harder than the 1970s post. Trying to narrow each year down to one. 
Im a big fan of 1960s films. I like a lot of the lesser known british films. All well before my time Im 36.

 

Anyway heres my selection, I could have picked at least 3 for most years.

 

1960. School for scoundrels.

1961. Payroll.

1962. Dr No

1963. From Russia with Love.

1964. Dr Strangelove.

1965. The Ipcress file.

1966. Alfie
1967. Robbery.

1968. Ice station zebra.

1969. The Italian job.

I like a lot of what has been said above, The Graduate is a favourite.

 

62- 64 was the hardest to pick for me. 
 

I could just easily have had, The War lover, The Quare fellow, The Great escape, Marnie, Zulu, Goldfinger, The train....

 

Basically anything with Michael Caine, Steve McQueen, Stanley Baker, Patrick McGoohan, Sean Connery.
