For me, I watched two great ones:

Out of the Past (1947)

• Uber-classic film noir, well-acted and intriguing.

The Tale of Zatoichi (1962)

• The first in many follow-up films, very amazing. I liken it to 1982’s Conan the Barbarian in that it’s more about showing rather than telling which I prefer. I’m looking forward to watching subsequent films in the long series.
