Now Showing

Hollywood in Southern California is the movie capital of the world. Many films have been made there, and the genres, or kinds, have changed often.

From the early-to-mid 1930’s, movie-goers got a look at the people involved in crime and their violent activities by watching gangster movies. After all this violence, people needed to laugh, so from the mid –to-late 1930’s, comedies became very popular.

In the 1940’s, many detective movies about policemen who solved crimes were made. Then came musicals, in which the story was told in songs and dance.

Musicals were especially popular in the late ‘40’s and early ‘50’s, but the mid-fiftieth, this light-hearted genre was competing with films about more serious subjects. There was one kind that could be found throughout all of these eras, and that was the western, films about America’s cowboys, Indians and early settlers.

Since the early ‘60’s, movie-goers have had a variety of movies to choose from. There are, for example, horror movies about people who encounter frightening, unnatural situations. There are also serious films such as documentaries about events that have actually happened, and science fiction movies about possible future events and future worlds. Some people have also enjoyed watching psycho-dramas about the everyday problems that people have.

Of course, no list of films would be complete without animated movies, which tell stories through a series of colourful drawings. These are especially popular among children.
