A question:
Why, at least for this forum, does the Golden Era only extend into the '40s? I would say a good argument could be made for the "Golden Era" extending through the 1950s, if not into the early 1960s.
For myself, I would say the "Golden Era" extends from around 1927 (birth of sound film) to 1964 (The start of the British Invasion, at which class and old fashioned virtues, values, and fashions began to die). Before that, IMO, we have the Silent Era, and from 1964-1981 or so we have the 'Silver Era'.
1981-present is pretty much the Modern Era, culturally speaking.
