From 1950 only: Rashomon
Very few films from that year alone, it is too limited when considering a golden age of films.

From the 50's decade:
12 Angry Men
The Day the Earth Stood Still
Seven Samurai

Rashomon for sure. Can't beat Kurosawa in the samurai genre.
Asphalt Jungle and Sunset Blvd are great too.
I don't like All About Eve. It is proto-Diva stuff that is just as tedious then as now. (Always felt Davis was overrated)

Some titles from that year that I know I saw but cannot remember at all. For instance, I know I saw The Gunfighter but recall not a thing about it or if I even liked it.

EDIT: Also loved the Abbot and Costello join the Foreign Legion movie.
