Watching The Scarlet Pimpernel right now. Great little 1930s adventure movie and the costuming is off the chain.

And on the subject of the 18th century I recently watched this televised adaption of Mozart's Cosí Fan Tutte, which has some truly inspired scenography. Imaginative and fanciful yet straying far from pretentious regietheater. Hit CC for subs. Also conducted by the great Karl Böhm!

If nothing else listen to the overture and the opening aria (La Mia Dorabella). Mozart in top form during his mature period. Contains important red/black pills about female hypergamy

Barry Lyndon (1975)is a masterpiece, as is Viscontis The Leopard (1963). My personal favourite is Waterloo (1970).

Elephant (2003) has always been excellent to me, even if it might be ultimately pointless.
