I'd Rather Charleston!

So Youth laughed and wept and live its heedless hour, while over the world hung a cloud which spread and spread until its shadow fell in some degree on every living person.

All alike, you men - you only want the satisfaction of being through with us first, that's all. So far, I have the good fortune of beating you to it. So... I am heartless.

***All these links are for YouTube and are watchable as of October 2021. Since this list is for classic films it includes some countries that no longer exist. Not every country is included here because not every country had a film industry or has films available on YouTube. A few countries have two films listed because I couldn’t pick between the two. I recommend looking up any film on here that you watch as a lot of them have very interesting backstories. “No subs” means no English subtitles. They may have subtitles in other languages.
