We were given a task to look at two separate decades and finding out what events were going on in the world and how Hollywood used these events in there films. I was given the 1960s and the 2000s I started with the 60s there was a lot of different things going on at the time like in 1961 the first man went into space this prompted lots of panic and curiosity of what could be out there which ultimately created opportunity for film makers to create space films that would really react with the audience such as The 2001 Space Odyssey http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062622/.Also in the later 1960's a massive string of radioactive monster films came along with the attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki which happened prior to 1960's such as Godzilla and the rest of the Shōwa Franchise.
