I have seen both of them so many times, studied the genres and directors in college. I listened to The Third Man's soundtrack all last week in preparation.

Also, I saved Sunset Blvd (my total fav), Exodus and On the Waterfront on the DVR and just watched Bridge Over the River Kwai last week.

Maybe a William Holden night sometime? I could add Stalag 17.

Blissssssss

Sunset Blvd.

Stalag 17

Bridge over the River Kwai

Except, 2 war movies?
Sure why not 2 war movies. Those were Holden's best war flix. Add Love Is a Many Splendored Thing. William Holden, Jennifer Jones. 1950s ultra-love story which goes along with Sunset Blvd as films in the 50s. Or how about Sabrina? William Holden, Humphrey Bogart, Audry Hepburn.

Holden in the 1930s
Golden Boy---classic movie with barbara stanwyck and Lee J Cobb (based on Cliffors Odets Broadway play, I believe)

The 1940s were kind of a lull for him

My favorite Holden movie of the 50s would be:
Executive Suite--big cast, great movie- Stanwyck, Holden, june Allison, Paul Douglas, Fredrick march, lots of folks.

and then theres:
Picnic- with Kim Novak

William Holden movies are great...have a good time with whatever you choose.
