Hundreds of full-length films were produced during the 1960s. * Historical drama films continued to include epics, in the style of ''Ben-Hur'' from 1959, with ''Cleopatra'' (1963), but also evolving with 20th-century settings, such as ''The Guns of Navarone'' (1961), ''Lawrence of Arabia'' (1962) and ''Doctor Zhivago'' (1965). * Psychological horror films extended, beyond the stereotypical monster films of Dracula/Frankenstein or Wolfman, to include more twisted films, such as ''Psycho'' (1960) and Roger Corman's Poe adaptations for American International Pictures as well as British companies Hammer Horror and Amicus Productions. Other European filmmakers like Mario Bava directed many notable horror films. * Comedy films became more elaborate, such as ''The Pink Panther'' (1963), ''The President's Analyst'' (1967), or ''A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum'' (1966). ''Breakfast at Tiffany's'' (1961) elevated the concept of a comedy-drama, where the subtle comedy conceals the harsher elements of the drama beneath, and Stanley Kubrick's ''Dr. Strangelove'' (1964) set a new standard for satire by turning a story about nuclear holocaust into a sophisticated black comedy. * Beyond the trenchcoat and film noir, spy films expanded with worldly settings and hi-tech gadgets, such as the James Bond films ''Dr. No'' (1962) or ''Goldfinger'' (1964) and ''Thunderball'' (1965). This Spy mania extended throughout the world with many countries notable Italy and Spain producing many of their own fantastical spy films. * Similar to spy films, the heist or caper film included worldly settings and hi-tech gadgets, as in the original ''Ocean's Eleven'' (1960), ''Topkapi'' (1964) or ''The Thomas Crown Affair'' (1968). * The spaghetti westerns (made in Italy and Spain), were typified by Clint Eastwood films, such as ''For a Few Dollars More'' (1965) or ''The Good, the Bad and the Ugly'' (1966). Several other American and Italian actors were also prominent in such westerns including Lee Van Cleef and Franco Nero. * Science-fiction or fantasy films employed a wider range of special effects, as in the original of ''The Time Machine'' (1960) and ''Mysterious Island'' (1961), or with animated aliens or mythical creatures, as in the Harryhausen animation for ''Jason and the Argonauts'' (1963) and ''One Million Years B.C.'' (1966). Some extensive sets were built to simulate alien worlds or zero-gravity chambers, as in space-station and spaceship sets for the epic ''2001: A Space Odyssey'' (1968), the psychedelic, space settings for the erotic ''Barbarella'' (1968), and with ape-city in the original ''Planet of the Apes'' (1968). Russian fairy-tale fantasy was also prominent with the likes of Aleksandr Rou directing many such films. Beginning in the middle of the decade due to the start of the cultural revolution and the abolition of the Hays Code, films became increasingly experimental and daring and were taking shape of what was to define the 1970s. ==Lists of films== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「1960s in film」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
