One Week, One Year

The start of a new decade brings with it a cavalcade of great movies! Foundational animation, anti-Nazi comedy, screwball banter, and moody dramas all just knocking it outta the park. Its almost like the 1940s was a good decade for movies!

It's time once again to reminisce and recap the last 10 years of movies! In this casual wrap-up episode, we talk about two movies that concern filmmaking in the 30s (The Aviator, Gods and Monsters) and we each count down our top 10s of the decade!   Here's our Letterboxd list of our 30s Top 10s: https://letterboxd.com/criselie/list/one-week-one-year-top-10s-of-the-1930s/ And here's our list of every movie covered on the show so far! https://letterboxd.com/criselie/list/one-week-one-year-films-discussed/ You can check out our socials and our YouTube version where you can watch along at http://linktr.ee/1w1y

Finishing out the 1930s with two of the most popular movies ever made! One is a romanticized fantasy about a place that never existed, the other is The Wizard of Oz! We're joined by video essayist/writer/former US history teacher Nats Can Fly! Be sure to check out her YouTube channel here [https://www.youtube.com/@natscanfly].  Also, we talk about a quintessential John Ford western, Frank Capra's most Capra-esque film to date, and a really sad Kenji Mizuguchi Kabuki drama!

Closing in on the end of the 1930s and Hollywood is firing off wacky comedies and technicolor extravaganzas!
