Oh, right, this was before talkies. I'm surprised to find I've seen four of those films, besides perhaps the most obvious, Snow White, I've also seen Wells Fargo, Lost Horizon and The Prisoner of Zenda.    Posted:   Sep 2, 2013 - 10:20 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) What are your favorite films from 1937??? LOL    Posted:   Sep 2, 2013 - 10:37 AM     By:   Timmer   (Member) What are your favorite films from 1937??? LOL Yes, it's always a big shock to discover films existed before the advent of electronic scoring.    Posted:   Sep 2, 2013 - 10:41 AM     By:   edwzoomom   (Member) My favorites in no particular order: Shall We Dance Make Way for Tomorrow Toast of New York Broadway Melody of 1938 Heidi Lost Horizon Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Stage Door A Star Is Born Topper Captains Courageous Rosalie Seventh Heaven    Posted:   Sep 2, 2013 - 11:04 AM     By:   Angelillo   (Member) My 5 favourite films of 1937, not including the obvious out-of-competition status for McCarey's MAKE WAY FOR TOMORROW, are : A STAR IS BORN EASY LIVING LA GRANDE ILLUSION SIDEWALKS OF LONDON THEY WON'T FORGET    Posted:   Sep 2, 2013 - 11:51 AM     By:   Essankay   (Member) The Awful Truth Easy Living Grand Illusion Guele d'Amour Nothing Sacred Pepe le Moko Shall We Dance A Star is Born You Only Live Once Young and Innocent    Posted:   Sep 2, 2013 - 12:02 PM     By:   Viscount Bark   (Member) I've been in the process of listing my favorite films going backwards from 2012 year by year on my blog. I haven't gotten back to '37 yet, so I'll let the article "1937 in film" on Wikipedia and the previous posts in this thread help me out! The Awful Truth A Damsel in Distress Elephant Boy Grand Illusion High, Wide and Handsome Make Way for Tomorrow Nothing Sacred Pepe le Moko Shall We Dance Stage Door A Star is Born Way Out West Young and Innocent I still need to see: A whole lot. There are still both a good deal of classics (not only from '37, but the 1930s as a whole) and lesser known, but intriguing films (my favorite title on the Wiki list: "Humanity and Paper Balloons" from Japan) I want to view.    Posted:   Sep 2, 2013 - 3:01 PM     By:   Gordon Reeves   (Member)    Posted:   Sep 2, 2013 - 6:07 PM     By:   Eugene Iemola   (Member) I love the following films from year 19 and 37: The Lost Horizon F. Capra You Only Live Once F. Lang Dead End W. Wyler The Hurricane J.Ford Night Must Fall Richard Thorpe (I couldn't remember his name- had to Wiki his name)(shit!)    Posted:   Sep 14, 2013 - 10:19 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) What are your favorite films from 1937??? LOL Yes, it's always a big shock to discover films existed before the advent of electronic scoring. For your information, a "LOL" is not a cry of shock. Hope you feel better now.    Posted:   Sep 14, 2013 - 10:41 AM     By:   Timmer   (Member) No kidding Sherlock. ( took you from Sep 2nd to come up with that!?    Posted:   Sep 14, 2013 - 4:29 PM     By:   First Breath   (Member) No kidding Sherlock. ( took you from Sep 2nd to come up with that!? Yes. I also have a life to live.    Posted:   Sep 14, 2013 - 7:34 PM     By:   Sigerson Holmes   (Member)    Posted:   Sep 27, 2013 - 6:41 AM     By:   Joe E.   (Member) Mm... undoubtedly Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. I must confess I haven't seen many movies from that year (or that general time), though I do want and intend to see many more.    Posted:   Sep 27, 2013 - 11:19 AM     By:   Viscount Bark   (Member) I have now arranged my favorites of 1937 in order: 1.
