The Great 1950's


The 1950's was an era of great films, iconic movie stars and timeless fashion.  It introduced new ways of thinking and bringing different culture that still stands with us today. When we think of the 1950's we think of great stars like Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, James Dean, Eva Marie Saint and Marlon Brando. These stars brought new meaning to film and a new light to the movie industry. They were entertainers in their world and are still among some of the greatest actors that we have to this day.






During the 1950's we also were introduced to great musicians  like Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra and Judy Garland, Ray Charles, Johnny Cash and Nina Simone to name a few. These musicians exceeded the hopes of the public and today are still huge stars.They brought new meaning to the world of music and their genres.Today they are still inspirations to the new and upcoming musicians.


The 1950's was a strong era for great people. It was a new beginning after WW2 but yet still had some of its own difficulties with war still ongoing.It was not perfect but can you say any era has been. We all have seen the trouble these people suffered and yes some people were worse off but  over all it was an era of great entertainers, musicians and fashion.How can you not love it.!:)
