what is a movie that is at least 50 years old, yet you think it would still be very much enjoyed by today's movie audiences?

Gone With the Wind, Wizard of Oz, Birth of a Nation. Old classics like that are great.

Today's kids are offended by Gone with the Wind. History bothers them.

Probably because they've been carefully programmed to be offended.

Otherwise, past events would be seen by everyone today as the record of people much like ourselves, both good and bad, who were caught up in real situations which we today should learn from.

But if a fictionalized history makes anyone feel better, there are always movies like "Dances with Wolves." Those Harvard-educated Plains Indians of the past make a powerful case for racial equality...or something.
