Default Which old movie would still be a big hit today?

Casablanca would be good in any era. Given your rules, I think it
would still be a hit even if it is released black and white. The one
liners were awesome. The girl was beautiful.


The BEST one liners in any American movie. For example:

"Here's looking at you kid."

"I stick my neck out for nobody."

"Play it, Sam. Play 'As Time Goes By.'"

"Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks
into mine."

"You played it for her, you can play it for me."

"Round up the usual suspects."

"Looie, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."


Never once in that film does anyone say ,"Play it again, Sam." The
beautiful girl named Ilsa Lund in the picture was Ingrid Bergman. "As
Time Goes By" by Herman Hupfeld was the one song most closely
associated with any American movie. It's the BEST film I ever
saw,period.
