Classic Movie Meme (score: 108)

From various people on LJ. There are 176 classic movies on the list. If you've seen over 105 of them, you are supposedly living in the past. Meh, maybe they just don't make movies like they used to.

Total Score: 108. This rather surprised me; I mean, I love old movies but we hardly get anything on TV in this part of the world, and the video rental places are not exactly over-running with b&w titles. I think I covered 75% of this list during my four years of compulsively viewing "The Golden Years of Hollywood, presented by Bill Collins" on Australia's Channel 7. You could say that my student years were exceptionally well-spent.
