The cinemas of several countries managed to produce influential films. UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfHollywood was still ongoing, and hit films such as ''Film/CitizenKane'', ''Film/TheMalteseFalcon1941'', and ''Film/{{Casablanca}}'' were arguably among its best products. The FilmNoir genre rose to particular prominence. British cinema had some major hits in the adaptation of Shakespearean works by Creator/LaurenceOlivier and the exemplary noir ''Film/TheThirdMan''. In France, influential directors such as Marcel Carné, Robert Bresson, and René Clément scored major hits in the aftermath of the War. Italian neorealism was developed in this decade, with major directors in the genre including Roberto Rossellini, Vittorio De Sica, and Giuseppe De Santis. In the Soviet Union, ''Film/IvanTheTerrible'' by Creator/SergeiEisenstein was arguably the most notable film of its decade. Meanwhile, a new generation of directors managed to produce their own hits. In Japan, new director Creator/AkiraKurosawa began his career.

During the war, due to fabric rationing and the closing of fashion houses in Paris, many day dresses were American-made, strictly knee-length and plainly decorated. Nylon stockings suffered shortages due to the need for parachutes, and sportswear was often substituted for casual wear. Many more had innovated themselves in order to be more stylish, even while working on factories. For instance, some women applied makeup on their legs in place of wearing stockings, while other women had the need to borrow their man's trousers and suits while [[WrenchWench joining the workforce]]. And somehow, in a certain {{loophole|Abuse}}, while dresses only used a limited amount of fabric and cutting, accessories such as hats, gloves and jewelry weren't. Hats, while they use fabric, but are considered accessories, can have wide brims and often decorated with fruit as they can get, [[UsefulNotes/OperaGloves gloves can be as high as they can reach the padded shoulders]], and necklaces can go as low as they can hit the dancefloor. After the war, restrictions were still implemented but were gradually relaxed in 1947, when a Parisian designer named UsefulNotes/ChristianDior created a new set of style, which included long full skirts, rounded busts, wide hips and narrow shoulders. Journalists had dubbed it the "New Look" and the innovative style lingered on until the end of TheFifties.
For music, jazz was the main ingredient to swing (the rage of the dance floor), bebop (the cutting edge, characterized by extremely fast tempos and complex improvisation), and Latin dances like samba, mambo, salsa and conga brought by soldiers. And then, before TheFifties popularized teen sensations, Music/FrankSinatra was the teen sensation.
Politically, the Forties encompassed at the very least the entirety of UsefulNotes/WorldWarII (1939-1945) and at the latest stretched until the start of the UsefulNotes/KoreanWar in 1950, and the election of UsefulNotes/DwightEisenhower as President ending two decades of Democrat dominance of Washington in 1952. Culturally, the decade started with the New York World's Fair in 1939 and somewhat ended with the premiere of ''Series/ILoveLucy'' in 1951. Please note that 1945 was a point of inflection, marking the end of WWII and the start of the UsefulNotes/ColdWar, as well as the first stages of the postwar boom. Also a nostalgic point during the second half of TheSixties (with many war movies made during this time), as well during TheSeventies and ''especially'' TheEighties (for the exaggerated fashions, of course).
Chunks of forties culture saw a resurgeance in the middle of TheNineties, with their bowling shirts, slicked back hair, and swing dancing making a brief comeback. [[Series/{{Friends}} Chandler Bing]] helped with the shirts on television, and ''Film/{{Swingers}}'' boosted both the fashion sense and the dancing.
