I haven't seen many movies from before 1970, but I tend to agree with Mista that from whatever I have seen, I didn't like it that much. There are some exceptions, like 8 1/2. Most of my favorite movies are from 70's. I don't think it is a matter of age, I am nearing 27 and I don't know how much older one has to be to appreciate movies. I think it is a matter of taste.
