The Moonlight Awards: 1940

Our second decade starts with a bang: a Chaplin masterpiece, iconic Disney, Hitchcock's only Oscar-winner, a Depression-era classic, and one of the greatest romantic comedies of all time - and those are just the films we were able to nominate. Which one film from 1940 best stands the test of time? Join Rachel Schaevitz and Aaron Keck as we discuss the year in cinema, villainous women, ad-lib ghostwriters, Mickey Mouse as box-office poison, the economics of wartime, the "man with no name," political speeches, and dances with globes - and then we'll dig into the data and try to identify the definitive best picture of 1940. This year's nominees are Fantastia, The Grapes of Wrath, The Great Dictator, His Girl Friday, and Rebecca. Who wins the Moonlight?
