One of the absolute best years in film history and much better than 1939 whether you do it with Oscar eligibility (including Children of Paradise, Brief Encounter, Henry V) or the original film release way (including Beauty and the Beast, A Matter of Life and Death).

I 100% agree with you -- no matter how you slice it, 1946 was a fantastic year for movies.

It's clear that after World War II, filmmakers just wanted to make escapist drivel.

You know -- suicidal small-town banker whose life has gone to shit; pilot who somehow escapes death only to get fucked by Gahd; a roundheels forced to spy on her friends; a two-bit hood with gumption who steals his dead boss' wife . . .


i think you get my drift. Yellow brick roads were a thing of the past, even if melodrama wasn't dead (see: the best year of our lives).

I am a fan of many of these movies, and we all know that I hate movies.
