I started watching TCM HD movies from the 1930s and 1940s. Some I watched with my mother and grandmother when I was under 10 on Black and white TV in the early 1950s

My mother started going to the movies with her sisters and father when she was around 5 years old which would be around 1925 in Seattle where she was raised. She said they cost a nickle a movie then.

The first Talkie (or movie with people talking) was Al Jolson in the Jazz Singer in 1927. 

Presently watching "Playing Around" made in 1930 starring Chester Morris and Marion Byron which in which she is a flapper girl and he is a gangster.

The other night I watched a movie with Robert Mitchum and Rhonda Flemming

Out of the past 1947

I was born after 1947 so it was interesting to see something made just before I was born.

Movies were very different in many different ways then than now. But, it is somewhat comforting to me now since the world is in such an insane transition sort of like the Great Depression and World War I and II. Things were somewhat simpler then and more basic. Both my parents graduated high school in the mid 1930s.
