Singin' in the Rain and Sunset Blvd are two of my favorite movies and I think they took very different approaches to the silent/talkies change.

What other shifts have happened in film as massive as silent -> sound?

Maybe we'll see a bunch of movies about the death of live-action once CGI fully takes over, but I can't think of anything else as huge in terms of paradigm shift.

It's not the same huge shift in approach, but more stuff about pre- and post-code would be interesting.

What other shifts in storytelling/media are there? And in what way are they as dramatic as the shift from silent to talkie?

(Anonymous) 2018-07-23 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
The problem (IMO) isn't that the shifts weren't dramatic, but that they aren't nearly as familiar to the viewing audience, because they happened longer ago and have to do with books that no one reads

(Anonymous) 2018-07-23 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
For example?

I don't know, we seem to have this whole wave of film and television masturbating over pre-internet (properly pre-AOL) media. I suspect it's because nostalgia is an evergreen theme for Hollywood.

I hadn't noticed there WAS any movies about the shift from silent movies to talk-movies...
