Commentary

When people today speak of “old movies,” they mostly mean the 1980s or 1990s. Not I. Most of my favorite films date from the early 1930s through the 1950s. The dramas and musicals have the most appeal, especially the Busby Berkeley extravaganzas (astonishing spectacles) and anything with Fred Astaire.
