Default OFFICIAL Golden Age of Hollywood (1920's-1950's) Thread

The following is a thread for fans of films that are from the Golden Age of Hollywood.


note: The Pictures I am using on this thread are from my own personal collection of Golden Age of Hollywood photo stills and promo photos that I have in my photo collection.

What is the Golden Age of Hollywood:

(From Wikipedia) During the so-called Golden Age of Hollywood, which lasted from the end of the silent era in American cinema in the late 1920s to the late 1950s, thousands of movies were issued from the Hollywood studios. The start of the Golden Age was arguably when The Jazz Singer was released in 1927, ending the silent era and increasing box-office profits for films as sound was introduced to feature films. Most Hollywood pictures adhered closely to a formula - Western, slapstick comedy, musical, animated cartoon, biopic (biographical picture) - and the same creative teams often worked on films made by the same studio.



Where should I start in my collection of Golden Era Films?

The best way to start your collection on Golden Era films is to see what kind of genre you are interested in. May it be noir, screwball comedy, westerns, musicals, etc.

You can watch some of these films on TMC (Turner Movie Channel), you can go to a store and find these very cheap (ala Big Lots) or do what some of us do and that is to track down certain copies of DVD's. A lot of these films are not on Blu-ray at the moment but there are some fantastic ones such as the "Gone with the Wind" and "Wizard of Oz" Box sets.

If you have films to suggest, watched something recently or find any good deals to share with people, please share it with everyone.

Here is a good place to start:

ON BLU-RAY:

- An American in Paris
- Casablanca: Ultimate Collector's Edition
- Gone With the Wind: 70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition
- That's Entertainment: The Complete Collection (Note: The DVD Complete box set is better than the Blu-ray release)
- Wizard of Oz: 70th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition



ON DVD:
Please note...there are so many releases out there. A lot you can find online for cheap, especially single DVD releases. But I'm going to focus on several...mainly DVD sets. The best way to find cheaper versions of these sets is through eBay or Amazon but using the site's price tracker to check the price fluctuations.

THE CRITERION COLLECTION:

The Criterion Collection has a few major titles from the Golden Era in their catalog.

- The Lady Eve
- My Man Godfrey
- Night and the City
- Pickup on South Street
- Sullivan's Travels
- Thieves Highway

----------------------------------------------------
FOX:

FOX similar to Warner are known for their special treatment of their classics. But for some reason, they've been quite silent with their releases as of late:

- The Alice Faye Collection (That Night in Rio / Lillian Russell / On the Avenue / The Gang's All Here) (1937)
- Alice Faye Collection 2 (Rose of Washington Square/Hollywood Cavalcade/The Great American Broadcast/Hello, Frisco, Hello/Four Jills in a Jeep) (Full Chk Gift)

- Marilyn Monroe - The Diamond Collection II (Don't Bother to Knock / Let's Make Love / Monkey Business / Niagara / River of No Return) (1952)

Other companies.

There are other companies to look at and may be cheaper such as "My Man Godfrey" from Legend Films (they add color and B&W versions on their DVD releases).

For "Little Rascals Fans", their is a complete edition from Genius but I recommend the 1999 Cabin Fever Collection which is much better.
