INTRODUCTION
|
|
|
|
The Twenties wan a decade which condidted of many well know events and
|
|
famous people. In which made the twenties part of out history today, such
|
|
events and people that made history in the twenties were Al Capone the well
|
|
mnow mafia leader from Chicago, Charlie Chaplain of the silent movies,
|
|
the annual Montreal Carninval in Canada, and the 60th anniversary of canada
|
|
in 1927. But these events and people are only a quarter of the history
|
|
help in the 1920's.
|
|
|
|
ENTERTAINMENT
|
|
|
|
Entertainment in the Twenties consisted of many famous people, it was
|
|
in the twenties when a man by the name of Walt "Elias" Disney (1901-66) a
|
|
cartoonest born in Chicago, in which he later graduated and later started
|
|
his own animation company which he introduced Disney's most popular ans
|
|
enduring cartoon characters "MICKEY MOUSE" in 1928. During the twenties
|
|
MICKEY entertained Canadians in such films as "Steam Boat Willie" (1928).
|
|
Other great cartoon films done be Disney include "Skeleton Dance" in
|
|
(1929).
|
|
|
|
The silent movies of the twenties is nothing to compaire with the
|
|
voiced movies we have today. The actors had to show alot of facial and
|
|
bady expressions to get the veiwers to understand what was happening in the
|
|
film. The most talented actor's in the twenties were Charlie Chaplai who
|
|
was known for his "tramp" look, Keaton with his stone facial expressions
|
|
(because he showed no emotion) and the famous romatic Radolph Valintino.
|
|
These three and many more entertained Canadians through the twenties.
|
|
|
|
In 1926 the voice era was coming in effect by Warner Brothers by the
|
|
Vitaphone. In 1927 Warner Brothers finally completed the first sound
|
|
picture called "The Jazz Singer"
|
|
|
|
To canadains evenings were not spent infront of t.v. Instead they would
|
|
listen to the radio. One for the radio stations listened to was CKCL.
|
|
They would listen to mostly music and live plays. Most of the music they
|
|
listened to was Jazz, and of course those were the days of the popular
|
|
ballroom dancing with the big bands. Other ways of entertainment were by
|
|
newspapers and books, One of the novels was "Strange Fugitives". Back in
|
|
the twenties Canadains authors produced 50 best sellins
|
|
|
|
Fashion
|
|
|
|
When the first world war ended a new stage was set for a new fashion.
|
|
Such signs of fashion change was already happening. The loosening of fit
|
|
and gradual downward movement of te wasteline.
|
|
|
|
In the twenties women could say and do what they please so in no time
|
|
women were wearing make-up be max factor which was a house hold name and
|
|
wearing bobbed hair styles which made them look exotic. In 1924 women
|
|
changed there hair styles to short so they can wear cloches <close
|
|
fitting,helment type hats>. Street choes switched to highbuttoned to low
|
|
cut pumps and saddle oxfords. Socks went from balck and white wool to
|
|
cotton,to beige silk and rayon. Socks became really noticable when the
|
|
skirts gradually became shorter . 1923 arrived and so did the new style of
|
|
skirt which now went from ankle to middle of calf.
|
|
|
|
Men would have worn double breast suits,lose set of pockets or they
|
|
would wear cardigans and khaki pants to match there socks or visa-versa.
|
|
The children had a style of there own. For the boys they wore trousers and
|
|
shirt which had a khaki appearance. As for the girls they had khaki skirt
|
|
and a top with a full pleated waist band.
|
|
|
|
People
|
|
|
|
People of the twenties were not all rich and but even the poor found a
|
|
way in having fun and living confortably. The average home would have a
|
|
wood stove which kept the house warm and cook their meals. To supply the
|
|
head in the house they would have to spend hours cutting down wood due to
|
|
electrical power hasn't come to their villages yet, but to them this is a
|
|
good life. Usually the new immigrants that come over from different
|
|
countries stayed together as a family and helped each other in paying the
|
|
rent and for food.
|
|
|
|
Such gatherings that happened during the twenties were the annual Taxi
|
|
picnic and the famous Montreal carnival which hosted the annual winter
|
|
beauty contest. Also the Canadian winters were fun for kids big and small.
|
|
The twenties were a time of poor poverty so the people stuck together as
|
|
one.
|
|
|
|
Conclusion
|
|
|
|
I conclude that the twenties were hard on poor people and good for rich
|
|
people, but the twenties were more than two different sides, it was a
|
|
decade of great joy and happenings. They were in a land of freedom of war
|
|
and beauty, which the Group of Seven shows in their paintings. Besides, of
|
|
all the problems that arose, the Canadian were proud to be in the twenties.
