List 33: Overalls movies set in 1910s, 20s, 1930s


After my western and pre 1900s list I made this list of movies and series with setting between 1910 and 1939. So during and between the wars and the Great Depression. Mainly farm settings. 1910s-1920 are almost all entries. In the 30s I excluded some entries mainly with women. I thought that I had much more movies in the 30s.

Some good movies between 1901 and 1909 (like Rascal) are missing. I think I have very few for that decade. (Also 1900s: Songcatcher, Road to Avonlea, The Twilight Zone 1959, ABC Afterschool Specials: The Ransom of Red Chief, Stone Fox).

Sometimes the exact year of setting is unknown or covering more years or even decades. I haven't sorted the list.

Sorry, it's too much work to link to each of the movie entries. Please use the blog search. I used some pics of lesser known movies or pics not included on the main page or similar (1=Let's Sing Again, 2=To Hell And Back, 3 = Places in the Heart, 4= Come Next Spring).

Red showing movies with girls or women. Blue are some selected movies with boys. Some have a low rating but showing good authentic farm scenes or bibs or else of interest
