1940s
The 1940s were shaped by war, inside the industry and on screen, pushing cinema towards darker, more morally uncertain ground. Italian neorealism arrived, Hollywood noir took hold, and films like Casablanca and The Third Man showed that popular and serious need not be separate things. See what Macca made of the decade below.
