They can be an enjoyable way to pass the time.
Right now, TCM is airing some in honor of Marsha Hunt's birthday.
Although made on a low budget, some of them had interesting stories and good acting.
And a number of neophyte actors eventually became A-listers.
I particularly love whodunits, like the Charlie Chan and Sherlock Holmes series.
Also, the "Dr. Kildare" movies from MGM.
Pity that such films are no longer made.
But, IMHO, today's movies aren't worth the (high) price of admission.
