What makes the 30's so special? I have probably seen far too few films to say much about that, but of those that I really enjoyed, and was surprised at how well made/acted/written and where the pace and style feels not that old and nowwhere as "outdated" as some might say:
Little Ceasar (1931) - 8/10 Freaks (1932) - 7,5/10 Bride of Frankenstein (1935) - 7,5/10 Scarface (1932) - 7,5/10 Dracula (1931) - 7/10 The Lady Vanishes (1938) - 7/10 Bringing Up Baby (1938) - 6,5/10 A Christmas Carol (1938) - 6/10
As of the 21 titles from the 1930s, that is listed as viewed on my Letterboxd profile, the one mentioned above is surely those I enjoyed the most and I guess the early gangster films of that time might just be my kind of entertainment, as I loved Little Ceasar, and also were very impressed at how good Scarface turned out to be. I still have a few James Cagney titles left, and might just give The Public Enemy (1931) a go, very soon.
