There is a popular Ocean’s Eleven remake from 2001, but we still love the original! Some of the most popular stars from that decade starred in the film including Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr. It was filmed in Las Vegas and follows the rat pack through a heist.

‘Viva Las Vegas’ (1964)

Speaking of Las Vegas, if you miss Elvis Presley, this is the one to watch. Elvis plays Lucky Jackson in the film. It is full of musical numbers and is truly one of Elvis’ best.

‘Beach Party’ (1963)

Ahh… beach days in the ’60s. Beach Party was the first of five similar movies. This particular movie starred Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon.

‘Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner?’ (1967)

‘Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner?’ / Columbia Pictures

This movie was truly ahead of its time and very important to watch now as the country faces racial protesting. In the film, a white woman brings home her black fiance, and their families have a lot of changes to make. This film was also remade in 2005, however, in this version a black woman is marrying a white man.
