100 Essential Films of the 1930s (1930-1939) - Page 2

The 1930s was a decade of political turmoil and economic problems; the Great Depression had affected the entire world, and Europe was dealing with both the fallout of World War I and the economic hardships of the time, both of which resulted in the rise of fascist political movements. The decade of the 1930s in film involved many significant films. The year 1939, in particular, was one of the biggest years (and is still considered one of the greatest years) in Hollywood with MGM's release of Gone with the Wind and The Wizard of Oz. Within five years of sound films, sequel films and spin-off plots appeared. Examples include Bride of Frankenstein (1935). Among the numerous remakes and new films were the 'monster movies', with a wide spectrum of stereotypical monsters. The first of these films consisted of Dracula, Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Vampyr, King Kong, The Hunchback of Notre Dame and The Invisible Man.
