Is 1939 Still Hollywood’s Greatest Year?If you could only watch movies released in one year, which year would you pick? Would you pick the year that gave you your single favorite movie (for me, 1989 and THE PRINCESS BRIDE)? Or would you pick a year that gave us a lot of pretty good movies (a la 1984, with GHOSTBUSTERS, THIS IS SPINAL TAP, and THE TERMINATOR)? Or would you go back 80 years to “Cinema’s Greatest Year,” 1939?
