I am thrilled to have Tobias Codakhrome joining me in the Plastic Microphone Studios via Zoom to chat about our all-time favorite comedies from before 1960.


The 1950s were a decade filled with a variety of significant events and cultural shifts. From post-war affluence and the emergence of modern jazz to the rise of fast-food restaurants and drive-ins, there was no shortage of excitement during this time. The era also saw the introduction of the all-electric home, the first credit card, and the advent of television and TV dinners. However, one of the most notable changes was the youth's reaction to traditional cinema.


Following World War II, there was a desire for rebellion and a break from the conventional portrayals of men and women in films. Hollywood responded to this demand by introducing the anti-hero - a new type of leading character that challenged societal norms. Stars like James Dean, Paul Newman, and Marlon Brando emerged as the faces of this movement, replacing the more traditional actors of the past. Alongside them were anti-heroines such as Ava Gardner, Kim Novak, and Marilyn Monroe, who brought a fresh and vibrant energy to the screen.


The late 1940s and 1950s were a time of change and innovation in the film industry, with audiences craving something different and exciting. The era of the anti-hero and anti-heroine was born, ushering in a new wave of cinema that captivated audiences and left a lasting impact on the world of entertainment.
