I love old B&W movies and this one was fairly unique in that there was not one single spoken word throughout the entire movie. It was staring Ray Milland and is called "The Thief". Basically he is a scientist for the Atomic Energy Commission and became a spy (for the Soviets I am assuming). I won't say it's a "block buster" but given the poor choices of stuff to watch these days it was worth the hour and 20 minutes. I watched this on YouTube Movies which is free.

Recently someone here mentioned the 1959 apocalypse film “On The Beach” was on YouTube. I had not seen it since it was released, so I watched it again. Surprising how modern it seemed to be for a movie made 65 years ago. Like it could have been made yesterday. Theme is “ what will you do when you know that everyone and everything on earth will die shortly.”
