One fun thing about watching a fuckton of movies all the time is I'll be watching some random old thing and slowly realize a classic movie took heavy inspiration from it. These are the ones I've stumbled across:
Hatchet for the Honeymoon (1970) -> American Psycho (2000)
Poor Little Rich Girl (1917) -> Wizard of Oz (1939)
Burnt Offerings (1976) -> The Shining (1980)
It would be cool if these older films were actually better than their famous descendants, like how books are usually better than their film adaptations, and original movies are usually better than their remakes, but this is not the case. At least for these three examples, the classics deserve the hype and the older films are elevated by the association.
It is a cool experience to identify some visual or conceptual similarity, and then see more and more similarities as you go, especially if the themes and ideas behind these images are very different. For example, the dream in PLRG is visually similar but much scarier than the dream in Wizard of Oz, because you're aware that she's in great danger from poisoning. It is a more melodramatic situation, told in a less ambiguous style (this is very much the case for all 3 originals).
I love comparing how different actors treat the same role, especially if I can get a contrarian opinion out of it (Ricardo Cortez' Sam Spade > Bogie's). It is especially striking to compare Oliver Reed to Jack Nicholson in the role of "scary dad." Nicholson is much creepier, but Reed is arguably scarier as he is so physically imposing and goes in and out of self-control. Certainly his death is scarier.
I suppose the main thing I'm trying to get my head around is this idea that classic movies are incredibly influential, but they themselves are not original sources, just better ones.

Stuart Damon plays pretend as secret agent Vince in The Adventurer: Poor Little Rich Girl (1.2, ITC, 1972). Damon was initially cast as a recurring supporting character, one of a group of assistants that work with lead Gene Barry, but he was dropped from the series (almost certainly at Barry's behest) and appears in just two episodes
#fave spotting#stuart damon#the champions#the adventurer#craig stirling#poor little rich girl#itc#1972#ok so the actual facts behind Damon's dismissal aren't entirely clear; certainly he believed it was Gene Barry's influence#and said as much in interviews (and for what it's worth i believe him). Damon and Barry had just one meeting before shooting started on the#series‚ at which Barry (who would alienate himself from pretty much the entire cast and crew during the course of production) expressed#shock at Stuart's height (he being much taller than Gene). in due course Damon was let go from the series‚ and whilst i dont have any great#source of behind the scenes material‚ it's fairly clear he'd only really been on one location shoot with perhaps some studio pick ups#he's in this episode and appears briefly and uncredited in the final ep (1.26‚ The Good Book)‚ but whilst it was last in transmission order#it had been probably the first episode shot‚ and crucially it shares the same location as this episode (and so the location work was#presumably shot back to back). the shorter and less athletic Garrick Hagon was cast as Stuart's replacement 'Gavin' and besides the name#change it's a safe bet that the scripts went unaltered. similarly‚ there's a couple of one off male helpers in a few eps each of whom is#given zero introduction and no discernable back story or development: quite possibly Damon's parts again‚ retro fitted for any available#character actor who could take the part at short notice and (most importantly) did not stand over Gene Barry....
