"Things to Come" (1936) Film

"The Shape of Things to Come" was adapted into a screenplay titled "Things to Come." The film was released in 1936, and it starred Raymond Massey & Sir Cedrick Hardwicke. Luckily for us, "Things to Come" has since fallen into the public domain. Of Course, the film is in good old black and white, and of poor quality (1936, c'mon now), but it is very watchable - if you oppose such things you should give it a try, the story is worth the effort. "Things to Come" can be viewed right here in its entirety on this post - click the play button below:
