Everybody needs to hurry up and watch Doctor Strangelove (1964) before the world ends. It is hilarious but also a terrifyingly realistic portrayal of the type of weirdos currently in power in the US. It feels the only real difference is that in Doctor Strangelove there is at least one decent man at the table. Today there are none.
The 60s were amazing for spaghetti westerns. A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly are obviously amazing, but check out Django as well. It’s a personal favorite, and origin of the absolutely amazing theme song playing during the opening credits of Django Unchained.
For horror fans, Night of the Living Dead (1968) is a must-watch, and they fucked up their copyright so it’s available on peertube.
Thank you for bringing a diverse array of genres. The Dollars Trilogy is some of the finest the western genre has to offer. And Django is just fun when they open up the coffin.
Strangelove and the first zombie movie (and it holds up so well) are also great.
Pink Panther (1963) is a legendary comedy that still gets laughs for Peter Weller’s incredible physical comedy and David Nivens sharp delivery.
The second best James Bond film (before he became a caricature of spies) also came out in 1963, From Russia with Love.
A (still good) ground breaking film noir released in France in 1967s Le Samourai.
The Sound Of Music released in 1965 and its lessons in quiet resistance to Nazis and how the ones we love can be corrupted by hate is suddenly, frustratingly relevant again.
And no one should pass up the timeless portrait of post-scholastic malaise like 1967s The Graduate.

2nd Strangelove. You’ll also probably learn where a few references came from whilst watching it

The 60s was an incredible decade for movies.
Just seconding this because it has several movies that would have been my answer.
