Film

Becky Sharp (much better copy, the cost may be a few commercial interruptions) (1935, Directed by Rouben Mamoulian) The first full color film (3 strip technicolor). Also stars Miriam Hopkins, one of my all time favorite actresses. The movie isn't the greatest, but the innovation is. Color is important in film. This is where it began.

New York Times Review June 14, 1935, by Andre Sennwald

Reference

Country Statistical Yearbooks (University of Wisconsin): I came up with the idea for this while Director of the UW Data and Information Services Center. My colleagues at the Center actually put it together and maintained it. With the Pandemic, other responsibilities have left little time for updates. (It is current through as late as 2019, I believe). I will be playing around with the site and sending updates to be included when time permits. It is part of a suite of basic reference sources.
