The fascination with black and white films is real and ever present even in the recent times, long after they have stopped being the norm with the technological progress ushering films in color, as witnessed in our love and appreciation for the following special favorites - all from the 21st century. These are my very own special favorites (note: just three of them have used minimal scenes or sequences in color as special highlights, blends or contrasts), the ones I consider myself lucky to have feasted my eyes on. Here's the list (all of them are worth watching and absolute delights), not in any order of preference though:
