Never been much of a John Wayne fan. The Man Who Knew Too Much has actually been on my to-watch list for quite awhile.
 
Looking for a 1956 movie?

From 1956 I would add as well A man escaped by Bresson and The killing by Kubrick.

From 1952 I'm quite fond of Naruse's Mother and Huston's Moulin Rouge.
 
I agree but imagine some people asking the same question about black and white and subtitled movies

[MENTION=46382]hutz[/MENTION] I've only seen 2 feature length movies from 1943: The Ox Bow Incident and I Walked With a Zombie, but I thought both were great and would recommend you check them out.

It's possible that I might have seen Raiders of the Lost Ark when I was little (I really don't remember if I did or not), but if I haven't, that makes 1981.
 
Technically 2017, but I'll try to fix it soon. Other than that it's still 1923. I don't know why, really, I have a bunch of films I'm ready to watch any minute, it just never happens. I'll gladly accept guidance and recommendations though.

For the 1935 club: A night at the opera was actually one of the very first classic movies I watched and I don't remember much of it but it made a huge impression at the time. Other than that I can't say much for this year. You will probably enjoy The 39 steps more than I do, it's a nice and solid Hitchcock and easy to like despite I wasn't a big fan. Peter Ibbetson is an odd one and I need to rewatch to fully appreciate it, but check if you are in the mood for something a little more unconventional.

I've watched three more but they are not really worth mentioning. The phantom light and Five men at the circus are functional, just decent little films with not much going for them, but they are quite short and better than nothing if you have one hour to spend. Aerograd... uh. I watched it in quite bad conditions but still I was completely off-put through the entire experience. I remember the acting being hammy as heck and I can't talk about the story because I was never into it for starters. It seems to be reasonably liked though.
