Great films, very thoughtful. But created at a time when movies were slower paced in general. Watching one of those movies today, can be very trying on people's patience.
I think if you're going to start watching classic films, you need to slowly get into the theme of it. Watch a couple older films without any expectations. Get used to the pacing. Then start going into the classics.
When watching these older films, turn off your phone, shut down all distractions, just focus on the film. There's too many demands on your attention right now, to really steep into the classics
