Eight more days of favorite films I: 1929-1938

I really enjoyed creating my top ten lists for films by genre over the previous two weeks, so I thought I'd keep going with another list.

It did bother me that most of my favorite films hail from the 30s & 40s and that the 70s are almost completely left out; I don't want to seem as though I only care for particular eras of film, so over the next eight days I'm going to list ten films which I consider the best of the year in which they were released. We start today with 1929-1938:

• 1929: Blackmail
• 1930: Animal Crackers
• 1931: City Lights
• 1932: Scarface
• 1933: Duck Soup
• 1934: It Happened One Night
• 1935: The 39 Steps
• 1936: Modern Times
• 1937: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
• 1938: The Adventures of Robin Hood

This list should be invaluable to you, just in case you find yourself in 1933 and need to know what films I recommend at the cinemas of that era.

Tomorrow: 1939-1948
