- 'The Sound of Music' (1965) As far as wholehearted, old-fashioned, and classic musicals go, they don't get too much more iconic than 1965's The Sound of Music.

- 'The Day the Earth Stood Still' (1951) Classic, old-school science-fiction doesn't get a whole lot better or more iconic than The Day the Earth Stood Still.
