Here is an example why many of the pictures of the early 30s stand out as great entertainment even in the 21st century.
In the newly opened Deco masterpiece, the Empire State Building, unfolds a story loaded with charm, attitude, and wise-cracking dialogue. John Barrymore was never better in a role! Director William Wyler draws the best from the supporting cast, too. Rare example of great comedy and drama that still works almost 70 years later.
Don't miss it--let's hope Universal and Kino Video release more of their library of 30s films--they stand the test of time with classic film fans!
