These are the great comedians whose work, in my opinion, trascended the medium and has stood the test of time.
This portion of my site breaks down the major epochs of screen comedy, from the silent era, up to roughly 1975 (anything
after that date is just too new to really appreciate how it all fits in).
The Classic Era (1929-1940)
The War and Post-War Era (1941-1963)
The Rebirth of the Comic Auteur (1963-1975)
