I was going to say Apocalypse Now but its 79...maybe King Kong...would be a cool environment to see on the silver screen. Always been so impressed with the work that went into that movie

two good ones!

Top 10 to add (in no particular order) without looking into it too much:

Lawrence of Arabia
The Bridge on the River Kwai
Once Upon a Time in the West
Bonnie and Clyde
Wild Bunch
Doctor Zhivago
The Great Escape
North by Northwest
The Searchers
Giant

I've seen all of these except for Ben Hur, Lawrence of Arabia, Wild Bunch, North by Northwest & The Searchers either at a theater or the drive in as a kid.

Bullitt, if just to hear the chase scene on a theater sound system.

Heston said the only way to see Ben Hur was on the big screen. Those chariot races would be awesome.
