Truly, the pages presented here only scratch the surface of the jewels and historical artifacts in our voluminous archives. Strangelove,” “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,” “The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie,” “Chinatown,” “Star Wars,” “Platoon,” “Silence of the Lambs,” “Rushmore,” “The Matrix” and “The Talented Mr. Ripley.” Some are for movies produced far outside of the U.S.; as you’ll see, even the Soviet Union touted its Sovexport Film operation in Variety in the 1960s and ‘70s. We hope cineastes enjoy this trip through the past century of film as seen through the pages of New York-based Variety, which began publication in December 1905, and Los Angeles-based Daily Variety, which had a proud 80-year run as Hollywood’s hometown paper, published Monday-Friday from 1933 to 2013.
