- Blake Edwards
- "The names Audrey Hepburn and Holly Golightly have become synonymous since this dazzling romantic comedy was translated to the screen from Truman Capote's best-selling novella. Holly is a deliciously eccentric New York City playgirl determined to marry a Brazilian millionaire. George Peppard plays her next-door neighbor, writer who is "sponsored" by a wealthy Patricia Neal.
Guessing who's the right man for Holly is easy. Seeing just how that romance blossoms is one of the enduring delights of this gem-like treat set to Henry Mancini's Oscar winning score and the Oscar winning Mancini-Mercer song, Moon River -

- "Cinematic masterpiece. Hollywood legend. National treasure. Gone With the Wind is all this and more. Following its premiere in December 1939, this winner of eight regular Academy Awards-including Best Picture-and two special Academy Awards was quickly deemed 'an intense, living experience' and the 'peak milestone in motion picture achievement.'

- Joseph L. Mankiewicz
- "Joseph Mankiewicz's captivating 1950 Best Picture Award-winning film about backstage backstabbing earned an Oscar nomination for star Bette Davis in the performance many consider her finest. Nominated for a record 14 awards, the scintillating film also led to Oscars for Manciewicz as Director and Writer; the honors also went to Sound Recording and Costume Design, and George Sanders was named Best Supporting Actor.
From the moment she glimpses her idol on Broadway, Eve Harrington strives relentlessly to upstage Margo Channing. Cunningly stealing Margo's role, Eve then disrupts the lives of Margo's director boyfriend, and her other friends in this juicy, witty drama." -

- Frank Capra
- "Cary Grant and a stellar cast romp through this classic farce based on Joseph Kesselring's 1941 Broadway hit and breezily directed by Frank Capra. Frazzled drama critic Mortimer Brewster has two aunts who play lonely geezers with poisoned libations, one sociopathic brother who looks like Boris Karloff, one bonkers brother who thinks he's Teddy Roosevelt, one impatient new bride--and only one night to make it turn out all right. In this circus' center ring is Grant, twisting his face into a clown's gallery of flabbergasted reactions and transforming his natural athletic grace into a rubber-legged comic ballet. You'll die laughing."

- Orson Welles
- "Orson Welles' timeless masterwork is more than a groundbreaking film...it is also grand entertainment, sharply acted and superbly directed with inspired visual flair. Depicting the controversial life of an influential publishing tycoon, this Best Original Screenplay Academy Award winner (1941) is rooted in themes of power, corruption, vanity--the American Dream lost in the mystery of a dying man's last word: 'Rosebud."
