Still considered to be one of the greatest decades in Hollywood, the films of the 1930s allowed an escape from the Great Depression and rising political turmoil through comedies such as The Marx Brothers “Duck Soup” to the safe scares of “Dracula” and “King Kong.” The 1930s also saw the rise of some of the best-known performers in acting and film history. We have selected “30 from the Thirties” to be voted on by registering members. Those with the most votes will be brought to the Lincoln’s big screen.
