Glad to hear you’re back in the pink! I’ll be watching the Sharks on TV tonight; I’ll look for you! Loved your comments on 24.
Your mom and I are midway through the season 2 videos. As for good B/W movies, just off the top of my head are these:
“Witness for the Prosecution”
“And Then There Were None” (a.k.a., Ten Little Indians)
“Requiem for a Heavyweight” – if you haven’t already seen it
“No Time for Sergeants” – first 15 min. is a little slow but hang in there
“One, Two, Three” – but you have to grasp the cold war context to get most of the gags
“A Place in the Sun” – based on “An American Tragedy”
“Come Back, Little Sheba”
“The Haunting” – mild, but watch with the lights off. Shows an effective spook story doesn’t need blood & gore. NOT the Zeta-Jones rehash!
Unfortunately it looks like No Time For Sergeants is not available on DVD at this time. A bit of research shows that some people have made transfers from the VHS version to bootleg DVD and sell them on eBay but my (brief) investigation shows that there are no pending release dates for a DVD version. However, almost anywhere you go there are long lists of comments left by fans demanding to know where a detailed collector’s edition DVD is and why it has been held up for so long.
