What are some of the best movies and tv shows from any genre set in the 1950s? Can be filmed at anytime before or after the 1950s. Any country of origin is fine.
Assuming you haven't seen it already.
For a 50's sci-fi show, look up "Quatermass and the Pit" from 1958/59.

Already seen both lol.

Ah. Well I guess it depends what you're looking for in 50's films. That was considered the "golden age" of Japanese films, for example. The war trilogy The Human Condition, for example.

Yea, I should have said I've seen a lot already...right now I'm watching Twilight Zone reruns.
Watch all of James Dean's movies.

One film I thought was interesting that most people haven't seen was the French film "Orpheus":

It's part of a trilogy, but it's by far the best segment (the first is a surrealist film from the 30's, and the last is also mostly surrealism).
Everything Hitchcock and Kurosawa did.

Movies that were shot in the 50's but don't take place in the 50's are fine too.
