classical hollywood cinema

Classical hollywood cinema was a era of much glamour and beauty that reigned from the late 20's to the late 50's.

'Casablanca' - 1942



'It's a wonderful life' - 1935


'King Kong' - 1933


i think it is formalist because it shows life in a warped, fairytale style, which is very romantic and picturesque. this results in a whole new world, which is entirely unrealistic, therefore formalist.

Good Amber. Make sure you are discussing form rather than content, as that remains our focus.
