Hollywood’s Golden Era? I’d pick the period from 1939 through 1960. Here are 144 classic movies from this Golden Age of the Cinema, ranging (alphabetically) from 'The Admiral Was a Lady' to 'You Were Never Lovelier'. Other films discussed in comprehensive detail (and with full background and release information) in this book include 'The Adventures of Mark Twain', 'The Chase', 'Daisy Kenyon', 'The Ghost of Frankenstein', 'Humoresque', 'In Old California', 'Joan of Paris', 'Letter from an Unknown Woman', 'Magic Town', 'Nightmare Alley', The Paradine Case', 'Roughly Speaking', 'The Scarlet Claw', 'Where the Sidewalk Ends' and 'You’ll Never Get Rich'.
