It’s the early 1930’s and Hollywood is entering into its golden age, transitioning from silent pictures to talkies. These three are among the best of the period, the second film prescient in its knowledge that we had not quite satisfied our absurd appetite for war six years before WW 2 would erupt (don’t worry, it’s a comedy!).
Much of the great cinema of the 20th Century reflected on the horror of the world wars and these three films provide a glimpse into Europe during this period; the first to The Great War, the second to World War II, and the third to the changed post-war landscape
