Absolutely.
I love the black and white films.

I watched Yield To The Night, with Diana Dors a while back.
Most of it was in the prison.
It had quite an effect on me, I couldn't stop watching for a second.

I'm afraid, modern films don't grip me like those.

I think I was born way too much later than I should have been.
