The 1920's was largely dominated by silent movies but saw the introduction of synchronized sound.

Movies were an art form that had universal appeal. Their essence was entertainment; their success, financial and otherwise, was huge.

In the 1920's movie stars were really stars - with huge salaries, the fashions and activities of the Hollywood greats echoed around the world and 100,000 people would gather in London and even in Moscow to greet Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks on their triumphal tour of Europe.
