Welcome to The Golden Age of Hollywood, a celebration of motion pictures, and the people involved in those pictures, from the 1920s through to the 1960s.
It’s our intention to publish this eMagazine quarterly: winter, spring, summer, autumn, etcetera. Our Winter 2022 superstar is Gene Tierney. In our article on Gene you can read about her movies, her personal life, and her struggles with her mental health. Gene’s courage, fortitude and candour in discussing her mental health issues is to be admired, and we hope our feature does justice to the actress and the person.
In this issue you will also find features on leading actresses and actors, highest grossing movies, classic movies, movie posters, and so much more!
We hope that you will enjoy the content.

Clara Bow was born into poverty in Brooklyn on 29 July 1905. Her father was an alcoholic while her mother suffered from severe mental health problems; she died in an asylum when Clara was a teenager.
Just before her mother’s death, Clara entered an acting competition. One of the prizes was a small part in a movie. Clara won that competition and was so impressive in the small part that she won further roles, and a contract in the newly-developing Hollywood.
Clara’s great ‘skill’ was to cry on demand. She later said that she only had to think of her home life and it reduced her to tears. She became the leading star of the silent era and made the transition into talkies.
In total, Clara made 46 silent films and 11 talkies. However, the strain of Hollywood and her bohemian lifestyle meant that she retired from movies in 1933 to live on a ranch in Nevada.
Must see Clara Bow movie: It, 1927, a movie that made Clara the leading symbol of the Roaring Twenties.
