Put out as teasers to promote the latest box office comedy, mystery, and drama, these commercials were partly created to for studios to promote established stars, as well introduce new actors with futures so bright you'll have to grab your Ray-Bans. Some commercials are even a generous fifteen minutes or more, including song and dance (Fred does some radio softshoe) from the movie, as well as interviews with the movie stars. All commercials are from the 1930s and 1940s, and some even include short scenes. This collection of movie commercials features all the big wheels in the big reels, so grab your sunglasses and your autograph hound, because we're headed to Hollywood!
