I'm new to this board & just ran into this string. I dunno, is 30 considered a "young fan" :0) I started watching old films in high school. I remember sitting next to the tv doing homework and watching Hitchcock's "Suspicion" - that got me hooked. Not sure where I got the classic film interest from, my parents never watched them. It is good to hear about other young fans out there....keeps the DVDs and TCM running!
