Good choices except for Cotton Comes to Harlem. That is an A grade movie that is very funny even if dated.

Yes, but the theme song is utterly goofy. It's got "When cotton came to Harlem, we kicked cotton's butt" as a refrain, for crying out loud...

It's an unused (and apparently unsolicited!) song that Cash wrote to see if it'd be used in the movie; it wasn't. Weirdly enough, the unused song recaps the plot more faithfully than the Tom Jones song they used, which was apparently a last-minute replacement for a song called "Mr. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" that the Broccolis decided was unsuitable because it didn't mention the name of the film.
