Battle of the Decades The Sweet 16
The Salacious Sixties
Team Dooms and Sno
The 1960's as described by Wikipedia: The 1960's was a decade of the Gregorian calendar that began on 1 January 1960, and ended on 31 December 1969. The "cultural decade" of the 1960's is more loosely-defined than the actual decade, beginning around 1963–1964 with the John F. Kennedy assassination and the Beatles' arrival in the United States, and ending around 1969–1970 with the Altamont Free Concert, the Beatles' breakup, and the Kent State shootings.
The term "the Sixties" is used by historians, journalists, and other academics in scholarship and popular culture to denote the complex of inter-related cultural and political trends around the globe during this era. Some use the term to describe the decade's counterculture and revolution in social norms about clothing, music, drugs, dress, sexuality, formalities, and schooling; others use it to denounce the decade as one of irresponsible excess, flamboyance, and decay of social order. The decade was also labeled the Swinging Sixties because of the fall or relaxation of social taboos that occurred during this time, but also because of the emergence of a wide range of music; from a folk music revival, to the Beatles revolution, to the introspective lyrics of Bob Dylan and Paul Simon. Norms of all kinds were broken down, especially in regards to civil rights and precepts of military duty.
Psycho Selected by: Dooms and Snoborder Released: 1960 Directed By: Alfred Hitchcock Who Directed: 5 Films in the 1960's
A Decade in Music:
Thoughts from the Team:There are a number of safe choices for best Hitchcock film but this might be the most well-known and for good reason. It helped rewrite the book on horror films and is still garnering new fans sixty years later. DoomsdayVisual Enhancements:What Happened... in 1960: NASA launches TIROS-1 (Television Infra-Red Observation Satellite), the nation’s first weather satellite, during April of 1960. t was launched from Cape Canaveral in Florida and was one of the world’s first successful weather satellites. TIROS-1 weighed about 270 pounds and measured 19 inches in height and 42 inches in diameter. The satellite could only function during daylight hours but was able to transmit thousands of photos of cloud patterns and document the formation of cloud systems. It was in use for about 78 days until it lost functionality.
VersusLawrence of ArabiaSelected by: Dooms and Snoborder Released: 1962 Directed By: David Lean Who Directed: 2 Films in the 1960's
A Decade in Music:
Thoughts from the Team: Has there been another movie whose every element and every detail has been a masterstroke? From the acting to the script to the cinematography to the score, almost everything about Lawrence of Arabia is dead-on perfection. We'll never see another film like it. Doomsday
Visual Enhancements:
What Happened... in 1960: Marilyn Monroe made one of her last public appearances on May 19th at a birthday celebration for U.S. President John F. Kennedy before her death. The event became an iconic moment in pop culture when the actress sang an intimate, sultry, and memorable rendition of "Happy Birthday" to the world leader. Monroe wore an intricately designed skin-tight beaded dress that was considered a little scandalous at the time.
My Vote: Lawrence of Arabia

I think you have the thoughts from the team backwards. Also this round's set-up is really cool.
