“Roaring 20’s”

The “Roaring 20’s” was a loose morality movement coming on the heels of WWI. Mass produced consumer goods and advertising created “want” instead of “need” in the American public. Fantasy and comedy experienced through silent movies also helped create the cultural change. European movie stars also helped push the envelope to loosen stiff American values while showing that they can retain respectability.
