Continuing the blog series on my personal favorite movies by decade:

1930's

Hog Wild (1930)



A Laurel & Hardy classic: rooftop mayhem as the duo try to install a radio aerial to “get Japan”.

Love Business (1931)



Jackie & Chubby both hilariously vie for Miss Crabtree's affections.

Monkey Business (1931)



4 stowaways on a cruise ship, 2 rival gangsters & a barrel of corny jokes add up to nonstop shenanigans by the Marx Brothers.

Helpmates (1932) 



Stan Laurel helps Oliver Hardy clean up the house after a wild party.

County Hospital (1932)



Stan Laurel visits a hospitalized Oliver Hardy w/ a bag of hardboiled eggs & nuts.

The Thin Man (1934)



William Powell & Myrna Loy as Nick & Nora Charles, solving a crime w/ class, sophistication & humor.

Murder on the Blackboard (1934)



Edna Mae Oliver in her second outing as the spinster teacher/sleuth Hildegarde Withers, investigating the murder of a fellow teacher; wisecracks galore!

My Man Godfrey (1936)



William Powell as a butler who's not all he seems & Carol Lombard as the woman in love w/ him who's not all there.

Bringing Up Baby (1938)



Cary Grant & Katherine Hepburn in a screwball comedy about a dinosaur bone, a pet leopard & a crazy idea about love.

Honorable Mention(s):

The 30's & the 40's were my favorite era for movies, so there are so many films/film series that I like, among them:

The Universal Horror films



I have a soft spot for these films, 'grew up w/ them & appreciate them for what they are...
