What films, made decades apart,would make a good double bill?
The Princess Bride (1987)
Stardust (2007)
Both exceptional takes on the fairy tale, with exceptional casts. Comedy, romance, pirates and a damn good sword fight.

OK, not decades apart -- in fact from the same year (1954) ... but too delicious not to mention anyway:
A STAR IS BORN -- James Mason as 'Norman Maine' goes for a morning swim in the ocean and disappears
20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA -- James Mason reappears underwater, now as 'Captain Nemo'

The Fall of the Roman Empire (1964) and Gladiator (2000) are literally the same movie.   |

VERTIGO
VENUS IN FURS is a Eurotrash retread of VERTIGO - Maria Rohm is a remarkably effective Kim Novak substitute and Madeleine the submissive victim, violated and abused, whilst Judy is a vengeful bisexual fur clad dominatrix this time round....   and who needs Jimmy when you get Klaus Kinski in a turban? NB The Jess Franco VENUS IN FURS not the Massimo Dallamano movie from the same time nor the Polanski)
and here is the groovy trailer

While watching The Post(2017) it occurred to me that it would make an excellent companion piece to All The President's Men(1976).
