Movies about/set in 1920s Jazz age


Just wondered if any guys here knew of any films that are set in the 20s, kinda like gatsby etc. Seeing Zelda & F Scott Fitzgerald in this movie made me think of this, I love those kinda films

Check out Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle.

I am looking too but I find you are more like to find general tv series rather than movies....I love the adaption of Brideshead Revisited, Downton Abbey, Boardwalk Empire...

Many movies in the 1950s are set in the 20s - Singin' in the Rain, Some like it Hot, "the roaring twenties"...Apparently there was a huge 20s revival in full swing - pardon the pun - during the 1950s!
