ThefilmsofMichaelCurtizhavecometosymbolizeWarnerBrothersStudiosofthe1930sand1940s.Curtizdirectedmanyfavoritesfromthatera,includingCaptainBlood,TheChargeoftheLightBrigade,TheSeaHawk,YankeeDoodleDandy,TwentyThousandYearsinSingSing,andMildredPierce.HehelpedguideBetteDavisasherpopularityroseinthe1930s,andhelpedestablishErrolFlynnasthesymboloftheswashbucklinghero.JamesCagney(YankeeDoodleDandy)andJoanCrawford(MildredPierce)bothwonOscarsunderCurtiz'sdirection.Hislongcareeranddirectorialstrengthsbenefittedfromtheconstantworkavailableinthestudiosofthe1930sand1940s.Mostobservers,however,noteaprecipitousdeclineinthequalityofCurtiz'sfilmsafterWorldWarII.
