"We've all seen the classics, right? Those old school Hollywood films that feature the stars of yesteryear, appear in every Top 100 list, and shaped filmmaking throughout the generations. A growing passion for cinema often includes an early, formative viewing of Citizen Kane, or relishing in the magic of Casablanca, Rear Window and 12 Angry Men. But the Hollywood Golden Age was more than just a few iconic masterpieces; it was decades worth of studio productions, churned out by the magic factory with the finest creative minds of the era at the helm.
For all its shortcomings, the studio system gave us some of the finest films ever made, and dazzling stars to light up the screen. It's a tragedy that so many wonderful films released prior to 1960 remain so little seen or known today. They may take some time and dedication to discover, but you'll often find it was more than worth it once you do. Here are ten of the best Hollywood classics you may not have seen."
