1920s to the early 1960s, thousands of
movies were issued from the Hollywood
studios.

films as sound was introduced to feature
films. Most Hollywood pictures adhered

comedy, musical, animate cartoon,
biopic (biographical picture) - and the
same creative teams often worked on
films made by the same studio.
