> "Movies are a great vehicle to talk about changes that happen in our society and in our culture," says TCM series curator Lawrence Carter-Long in the Los Angeles Times. "I wanted to show that evolution, how the films influenced society, and how the changes in our culture influenced the films that were being made."
