Please - any other suggestions?

The Great Race is a top-ten movie for me. Natalie Wood exudes sex though...but I suppose it's a little different than today's standards. I love the pie/bakery scene and the fencing scene. Maaaax!
Suppose the Sound of Music or Rodgers and Hammerstein stuff is too sappy for a 12 yr. old boy? I have 3 daughters so I'm jaded.
How about Young Einstein? I may get flamed for that one....but that movie kills me. Pretty innocent, IIRC too.
Or Hudsucker Proxy? That one might be too dark...and I can't remember what that one was rated.....but it's a cool flick.
