List of Movies - Century XVIII

Century XVIII

The 18th century is also known as the “age of enlightenment,” due to the birth of the movement known as the Enlightenment. During this period, several important events took place such as the War of the Spanish Succession, the Seven Years' War, the French Revolution, the Independence of the United States, among others. These political, economic, social and cultural events have had great influence until today.



 

The 18th century has always been an interesting century, and what better way to learn about it than through films set in the 18th century. These cinematographic works transport us to a time full of elegance, intrigue and significant historical changes.

 

Films set in the 18th century feature captivating visual aesthetics. Directors and production designers meticulously recreate the fashion, atmosphere and architecture of the period. From magnificent clothing to majestic palaces and cobbled streets.

 

In addition to aesthetics, these films also explore themes typical of the 18th century. We can find stories of political intrigue, entanglements of love and passion, as well as struggles for freedom and human rights. Many films address relevant historical events of the time, such as the French Revolution or the independence of the American colonies.
