Scarface (1932)
Paul Muni’s leading performance helps cement the many tropes of gangster films contained in Scarface into the canon of gangster cinema, earning the film a place among the greatest films of all time.
The Blue Angel
Josef von Sternberg adapts the work of Heinrich Mann well, bringing out the best in his two leads – Jannings and Dietrich – as they weave the tale of a fall from grace in classic style, achieving a place among the greats.
Horse Feathers
Horse Feathers succeeds in creating an avenue to consume many forms of humor in one short sitting, making it a prototypical comedy film and, as such, one of the Greats.
Footlight Parade
Some of the best musical choreography ever put on screen combined with mostly well-aged comedy and impressive acting performances help make Footlight Parade one of the greatest films of all time.
