Go-to films for demonstration/test bench purposes?

Aside from the very obvious contenders (The Wizard of Oz, etc) what are your favorite go-to films when working on a set, or demonstrating it? I see the Wizard of Oz enough in other folks' restoration photographs/videos, it's nice to sometimes see something a bit different.

For a monochrome set, I usually pull out one of the following:
  • Broadway (1929)
  • 42nd Street (1933)
  • Modern Times (1936)
  • City Lights (1931)
  • The Gold Rush (1925)
  • The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) *Easily one of the greatest films of all time; if you haven't seen it, rent or buy it NOW
  • The Naked City (1948)

For color, I usually grab one of these:
  • DuBarry Was a Lady (1943)
  • The Red Shoes (1948)
  • Singin' In The Rain (1952)
  • Easter Parade (1948)
  • Fantasia (1940) *Only certain sequences
  • House of Wax (1953)

What about you guys?
