1930's "Modern" Film Inspiration



For the past two weeks I have been getting myself in the "mood" so to speak for tomorrow's The 7th Annual Jazz Age Lawn Party being held at Governors Island. I wanted to be inspired and yes I could have watched some authentic classic 1930's films but I like to use those for my Weekend Cinema Spotlights *smile*

Films are what inspire me so I found a few modern 1930's themed movies that I hope you will find inspiring as well.

The Artist (2011)

Honestly my favorite film of the 21st Century!

A Good Woman (2004)

I was happily delighted on how good this film was!

Harlow (1965)

Interesting to look at but not true to the life of Harlow.

Cold Comfort Farm (1995)

Great fun, quirky and made me want to read the book!

Each film really is a visual delight. Some were better than others but they did the job well-all of them. I am fully inspired and ready to immerse myself in the 1930's!!

Tune in for posts about my adventures.....

    I loved A Good Woman, even my husband liked it and Cold Comfort Farm is an old favorite of mine. I the Gene Harlow movie was ok, the clothes were way off.

    Wasn't the Artist something else? Tony and I both thoroughly adored it, and agreed it was one of the best films in recent years.

    Wishing you an utterly fantastic time at the lawn party, dear Bunny!

    I have to add these to my DVD list. I wish I could jump into a time capsule and take a look back at this period too::))
