That's so kind! Thank you 🧡
Hello lovelies,
I hope you enjoy seeing me talking about one of my favorite things and happily sharing all the trivia facts 😂 Let me know if I should continue this series and which genres/decades you would like to see next 🧡
Yes, please continue these series. You are so good at it. 👌I would love to see more decades, 30s, 40s and 60s. 😊
Oh yes, I would love to see some more videos like this one 🧡 For the decades, 30's, 40's and 60's 😊
I always love this series 🙏❣️❣️❣️
I loved it! I would like to see more 40, 60 and 70 decades. Maybe drama and thrillers!
I can never get enough of Love In The Afternoon. I think I’ve seen it more than 50 times. To me, this is the most beautiful Audrey Hepburn film and definitely my favourite of hers.
You are so beautiful, smart and amazing! I'm 16 years old and I'm from Romania and I also have a passion for old hollywood. So, my favorite movies are Sabrina, Niagara,Blood and Sand and Gilda. Congrats for this lovely video. Greetings from Romania!❤❤
If you love old Hollywood, may I recommend Be Kind Rewind, if you’re not already subscribed, that is. She explores the history of Bollywood using the framing device of the Best Actress Oscar. It’s one of my favourite channels.
@@katherinemorelle7115 omg. Thank you so much🥰🥰
My all time favourite era when it comes to movies (and fashion as well) is definitely the 30s, but you speak with such passion about the 50s that you totally encouraged me to watch couple of those. Teacher's pet for a start, I absolutely love Clark Gable.
Just this morning I was looking for good rom-com movies from the 50s but didnt find any good... Luckily, this video made my day! You truly serve as an inspiration to many people who are passionate about the golden/classic times, including me! Love from the Philippines! 🇵🇭
my absolute favourite movie is Meet me in st Louis, its a breathtaking film, i couldnt reccomend it more! and i would love to see the 60s romcom list :)))
I just love Judy Garland. So talented, but utterly destroyed by Louis Mayer, who cheered her up and spit her out for profit.
She really should have won the Best Actress for A Star is Born in 55, bit it was given to Grace Kelly instead. Partly because the industry hated Judy and how difficult she was to work with, and partly because they thought Grace would be worth more in the long term. Karma got them, I guess. But not giving Judy that Oscar was imo the biggest mistake the Academy has ever made (which is really saying something!)
@@katherinemorelle7115yes i agree!!! Judy was such a kind hearted person and was treated so horribly , its so unfair. She deserved so much better. I adore listening to her singing
My favorite 60s rom com is What a Way to Go with Shirley MacLaine. Edith Head did costuming and it is EPIC!
A star is born is amazing too!!
I agree!
I love all the ones you mention. Two of my favourites are Cary Grant and Grace Kelly in To catch a thief and Grace Kelly and James Stewart in Rear Window although they are strictly speaking thrillers. The wardrobe in both these films is amazing.
You are the person that inspired me to dress like in the 40s and the style of this area makes me feel so confident and so happy 😁 and I really want to thank you for all of that ❤️❤️
You look like a 'Retro Queen' 😍😍
How sweet, thank you 🧡
I love Audrey sooo much ❤ so nice that I’m not the only old soul :):)
I just watched Sabrina yesterday!! ❤️
Xoxo from México!
Thank you for the movie " The bird and the bees" suggestion. I have been watching it 100 times now and still can't get tired of it
I haven't seen that one! Thank you ✨
@@Shirinatra please watch it. Very adorable movie💯
My favourite old Hollywood romcom is His Girl Friday (1940). I definitely will watch the two Cary Grant's movies that you mentioned bc I loved his performance in His Girl Friday! ❤️
Definitely continue with this series. I am always looking for great suggestions and I slowly watch some of these fabulous older films.
Movies from the 30s pls!! It’s my favorite era 😍
We have same tastes 😁I'm using this time at home to watch or re-watch old movies. I've just watched for the first time Sunset Boulevard and On the Waterfront. Great ones!! Roman Holiday is beautiful, also because of Gregory Peck who is one of my favourites 💖
I love how you appreciate the fashion/style of every movie you watch. I'm also fascinated too. Love lots shirin! 😍
It's just too beautiful too not appreciate it hehe! 🧡
I LOVE IT! Please, continue with the series, it was so interesting ❤️🥰
I grew up watching all these movies and have to agree with you on every single one!! Thanks for the great recommendations! I hope everyone watches them.
Loved your film video!! I am very excited to see more of this series of your suggestions of old movies! I love old movies! Gentlemen Prefer Blondes is one of my ultimate favorites!
Yay! I've been waiting for this video for sooo long! Thankyou! ♥️♥️♥️
¡Buen video para empezar un buen maratón de películas!
Muchas gracias por la recomendación, me encanta tu dulce y encantador estilo, muy inspirador. 🥰💐✨
Amazing video, looking forward to another video from this series ❤️❤️❤️
Ohhh!! I love all the films you’ve selected, very good taste. Also, the end is fantastic😂😂
Love your videos as always and I love two Cary Grant movies, Bringing up Baby and Holiday. I will watch the movies on your list that I have not seen. Thank you so much for your videos ❤
So happy about a new video of yours! You're so inspiring! ♥
I was looking for something to watch, this is perfect! I'm happy that one of those was filmed in Rome, wich is my city... thanks for this video, your super classy and lovely as always! Greetings from Italy 😘
thanks for this video, very interesting ! Now I can't wait to watch these films XD
You know what might be a fun genre to explore from old Hollywood...The Film Noir. The Maltese Falcon, Double Indemnity, Laura, Sunset Boulevard, Shadow of a Doubt (my favorite), Notorious, The Asphalt Jungle, Suspicion, Gaslight, Mildred Pierce (another favorite), The Postman Always Rings Twice, The Woman on the Beach. This is just some of them. I think you'll enjoy this genre😉
Thanks for the movie recommendations! I'll be sure to check them out!
Loved the bloopers 😂❤
I would love to see this become a series! I love old cinema, and it's always so fun to learn someone else's favorites! I love all the Audrey Hepburn films you mentioned; a few of my favorites I would recommend are An American in Paris and Singing in the Rain.
I love Roman Holiday so much
This is my favourite video of yours!!! Please do more like this! Thanx ❤️
Thank you for this video, I really enjoyed it 🧡🧡 You look really elegant and beautiful, I love your hair 🥰🥰 and the ending was so funny 😄🧡
Ah thank you! I've been waiting for this.
Great video
If you haven’t seen it be sure to check out Rock Hudson and Gina Lollobrigida in ‘Come September’! This one is from the sixties and it’s fun, light, and hilarious plus it has Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin in it as well. It’s set in Rome/Italy so it’s perfect for summer!
I love this film! It's also in my collection ☺
I love all of these! Thank you for sharing ❤️
That's great to hear ✨
My favorite 1950 film you truly made my day. God bless.
Thank you for adding the bloopers at the end!
I'll probably do this more often now 😄
I like the old Era it's better than nowadays honestly and I'm a fan of 1990's even though I wasn't born there 😢😅❤️
I think it’s important to remember not to romanticize the past. Although I love the aesthetics there were a lot of really bad things like a lot of racism, sexism etc. They also couldn’t treat a lot of both mental and physical illnesses.
Today you can dress however you want and also not get a lobotomy just because you’re a “difficult” woman.
Laura Binzer exactly. Vintage fashion, not vintage values
@@laurabinzer4620 Lol I think what I understood is.. I'm not a "difficult" woman here😂
love these types of videos!
So many of those movies are my favourite as well. The only ones I haven't seen are High Society and Indiscreet which are on my to watch list.
I just love your videos. I would like to see recommendations from the 40s as there are so many great movies.
An American in Paris is one of my favorites! Also, thanks to you I finally watched Roman Holiday. If I wasn't obsessed with all things vintage before, I definitely am now!
the little blooper real at the end is perfect 😂😂 I could watch a full vid of just that and be entertained by you
Hehe that's good to know 🤣
I love Roman Holiday!! Old movies are the best😍
Philadelphia Story is my favourite movie. I’ve been trying to decide whether to watch High Society, because the original is so great.
Oh now I want to watch them all 😆 thank you for that great video, you're obviously passionate about old movies and it's lovely to hear you talk about them ! xx ❤
*PS:* you can find many old movies on UA-cam or dailymotion !
I just watched my first Audry Hepburn movie ever yesterday, it was Sabrina and oh my goodness it was such a lovely movie!♥️ Highly recommend!
What a lovely video and very much looking forward other videos within this series. Perhaps you could cover Film Noir, Hitchcock heroines or films adapted from books (my personal favourite being Rebecca with Joan Fontaine). Would love to know your thoughts on other actresses such as Lana Turner, Bette Davis, Olivia De Haviland etc. Have you seen the fashion in Imitation Of Life; I think you would enjoy it xo
I like your blooper. It's very fun 😄🤩
What a fun video! I grew up watching all of these and many more and I agree that older films had a beauty, charm, and wit that modern movies can’t capture. I do videos on my channel where we pair an old movie like these that have fiber arts like knitting, crochet, sewing, etc in them with a pattern that fits with the theme of the movie. It’s a lot of fun! Now, I’m gonna go re-watch all of these great movies.
Can you also make a 30s, or 40s list? Also maybe a Alfred Hitchcock list, there is so much fashion in those (to catch a thief, vertigo, rear window, north by northwest, suspicion, Rebecca Dial m for murder, etc...)
Such a great video!!!
I love how nerdy you turn when it comes to this topic 😝😍
Just watched Roman Holiday😭 thank you for the recommendations!
Like that video so much, thanks 😍now, i have some new films on my watchlist :D
Muy favourite Doris Day film is "Midnight lace". It is not a rom-com film but I love it!! I was shocked the first time that I saw. I have seen it maaany times 🙈🙈
Oh yes that's a great one as well 🙌🏻
I have seen all these movies (except "Houseboat") and have all of them on DVD (except "Indiscreet" and "Houseboat"). Interestingly, "High society" is a remake of "The Philadelphia story" from 1940. And here's another fun fact for you. In "How to marry a millionaire", when Betty Grable's character arrives in Maine and comments music on the radio, and says it's Harry James. He was her then real life husband! 😊
Oh I didn't know the fact about Betty Grable, thanks for sharing ☺
@@Shirinatra No problem, glad to share. 🙂
Just watched "How to marry a millionaire" the other night!
I also share your love of old films! In my teens and 20s people were usually surprised by my classic movie knowledge, especially because i don't look the type (tattoos/piercings, grunge/rock style). Have you seen "Marty"? It's from 1955 and also a multi Oscar winner. Because of this movie, I always danced at least one song with men who would ask me at clubs so I wouldn't hurt their feelings! Lol
Beautiful blouse, doll!😍
I've heard about Marty but I haven't seen it yet! It's definitely on my list, I want to watch as many old films as possible. Thanks for reminding me of that film again ☺
Haha now I definitely need to see it 😄 And thank you, it's actually a dress from Mango but I got it many years ago!
I don’t think I can count how many times I’ve watched Roman Holiday 😂!!! ❤️
Love this list! I'll be sure to watch the ones I haven't yet 😊 Also, "fiance" is pronounce like Beyonce but with an F. Financer is pronounced like Fi( I sounds like eye) and nancer like dancer. Financer. If that makes sense! Lol thank you for the video
Private Number with Robert Taylor, The Shop Around the Corner with Jimmy Stewart, Gaslight with Ingrid Bergman, Leave Her to Heaven with Gene Tierney, Imitation of Life, North by Northwest with Cary Grant and Eva Saint, and Il Posto(Italian film) are some great ones!
Hello beautiful,I saw this poster on your instagram story and I cannot wait to enjoy your video, 🙄🙄🥰💜💜😻😻
Love this video, love you ❤️
I would love to see a video series like this of your favorite Old Hollywood film noirs or of teen romance films in the 50s such as Gidget, or even musicals from the 1930s/1940s. I love this series!!
Maybe a 40s list? I just rewatched The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer (Cary Grant, Shirley Temple, Myrna Loy), and it's definitely one of the funniest and cutest rom-coms I've seen from that decade!
I. Roman Holiday 😍😍 [my favorite love story]
II. Sabrina [shame on me, I haven't wached it by far]
III. Funny Face
IV. High Society [I definitely have to watch it 😍]
V. Gentlemen prefer blondes
VI. How to marry a millionaire [Marilyn is the Queen 😍]
VII. Pillow talk
VIII. Teacher's pet
IX. Indiscret
X. Houseboat
Love it, but i definitely missed Some like it hot 😍😍😃
Completely missed that Some Like it Hot was from the 50's too! I somehow thought it was from 1960. I love that film too 😄
@@Shirinatra doesn't matter 😄🧡🧡
I love all these movies too good choices
Great now I wanna watch some movies
If I may, the common pronunciation for dates such as 1956, is nineteen fifty six. English isn't my first language either, so I'm not trying to be harsh on you, I just see that you make an effort to speak in english and you are doing so well already you might use some feedback. Great video as always, and oh that era of film gave us some of the most iconic movies to date. Glad to hear you are listening to You must remember this, I loved it as well.
I'm always happy about feedback but I actually heard and read that you can use both ways? I don't know, I'm not expert 🤷🏻♀️ The funny thing is sometimes I use the one version, sometimes the other 😄 Anyway, thank you for your comment 😊
I'm so happy, a new vidéo ! I missed it . 😁❤
I hope you'll enjoy it ✨
Of course ! I love your clothing in this video. 👍🏻
This is so brilliant. I also talked about my favorite old Hollywood movies from the 50s in a youtube video. When it comes to movies, it appears we share similar tastes. 🧡 🧡 🧡
Your shirt is gorgeous
Please continue this as a serie. Silent cinema, color cinema, top movies for this or that actress.... I would follow your recomendations.
I personally love Some Like it Hot! I loved this video, so helpful!❤
I love that film too and completely missed that it was from the 50's as well. Otherwise it would've definitely been in this list 😄
I love Roman Holiday and Sabrina was good too! But my favorite period piece is the Forsyte Saga series ( not vintage/old hollywood but still love it)!
In modern times I found a good series that has some old days vibes its Dark series from Netflix plus it's German so I learned many things about fashion in German:-D
I would love to see a video about your favourite "hard boiled" detective or "noir" films, as well as musicals.
I want to be like you! You are so clever and classy!
The ring Grace wears is actually her engagement ring to Prince Rainer.
In High Society. She lies on the couch in one scene looking at it.
Oh yes I read that too!
Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe are so adorable and so are you. Love this video. 😍

Gregory Peck and Ava Gardner films-
On The Beach 1959 (romantic drama, sci-fi)
The Great Sinner 1949 (romantic drama) -- they're my fav film couple
I also recommend some Gary Cooper films :)
- Bluebeard's Eighth Wife 1938 (Screwball comedy w/ claudette colbert)
- Mr Deeds Goes To Town 1936 (Romcom with Jean Arthur)
- Ball of Fire 1941 (Screwball comedy with Barbara Stanwyck)
- The Pride of The Yankees 1942 (baseball drama about Lou Gehrig)
-The Cowboy and The Lady 1938 (Romcom with Merle Oberon
Thanks for the recommendations! ✨ I think I haven't seen one of those films yet! Now I have a lot of new films to watch hehe.
Breakfast at Tiffany’s is my favorite 💕
Elizabeth Taylor was also considered to play Princess Ann in Roman Holiday!
I know! She was probably considered for even more roles back then 😄
I have to say I prefer the rom-coms of the 30s and 50s for a simple reason: they (mostly) have all these lovely 50s elements of beautiful hair, clothes, and makeup and great actors--maybe not so much the well-staged songs--but they also have the key missing ingredient in many of the 50s films: a meaningful message!
Of course, the 50s films will throw in a basic message here or there, but mostly the focus seems to be on glamor, travel, and personal glorification, to be honest.
In the 30s and 40s, life was much more serious, and so were (some of) the messages of the best rom-coms, often about ideals, even if they were just about what true love is and not settling for less. The emotions in 50s films often come across as artificial to me. I don't think I can get that same warm feeling I get at the end of It's a Wonderful Life from any of these 50s movies, except perhaps Roman Holiday (which is so bittersweet, ahhh!), probably because it's built on a 30s/40s-style storyline.
I guess the rom-coms of the 30s and 40s could be said to be both dramas and rom-coms at the same time, while the 50s rom-coms are only that one thing. Do you know what I mean?
60s rom-com next please!!
A great review with good choices. Have you seen Audrey’s film “Love in the Afternoon” with Gary Cooper? That’s actually my favorite of her films!! If you haven’t seen it, you will love it! Also- you must have seen “It Happened One Night” with Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert. Can you tell me where you got your earrings and blouse in this episode?
Yes I have 'Love In The Afternoon' in my collection as well and I love it. It's a sweet film ☺ I desperately want to watch It Happened One Night but I couldn't find it so far. But I'll definitely watch it one day.
It's a very old dress from Mango, so you won't find it anymore, but the earrings are from 'rachelynjewelry' on Etsy ✨
I'd love you to make a video about French New Wave cinema. ❤️
Eres hermosa, refinada y elegante.
Love your shirt! What brand is it?
Imma gonna watch them I lovvve this area so yeah thanks I have been looking for the best movies then , Thank You Love You 🤍
Also check out “charade” (Audrey and Cary) for your 1960’s list!❤️
Already seen MANY times 😄 I have watched most of Audrey's films and Charade would definitely be on my 60's list!

Adorable list. Would love to see what are your favorite vintage musicals & 30s/40s stylish films! 🖤 I recommend you to watch "Roberta" (1935) with Astaire, Rogers, Scott, Dunne; it's so sweet, fashionable & filled with lovely songs and dance scenes! 🌸
You're beautiful! I love your style!
