The Origins of B Movies | Film 101

B Movies have been a fixture of Hollywood since the 1940s, but why did they come about and what does it mean to be a "B Movie?" This July, TCM is spotlighting original and deep-cut B Movies, and in this Film 101, we explore the origins of these lower budget features and their lasting impact.

B Movies will air on TCM Thursdays in July, programmed by author Jeremy Arnold.
