Love Sarah
Sachertorte
Those 1930/40 movies were written/produced when the US was in the Great Depression or WWII. They tend to be overly optimistic (Fred Astaire) or emphasize grittiness (Double Indemnity). So many movies now (like Netflix's) focus on the weirdness as a novelty or on world conflict. I find both to be unpleasant and not good for our society.
