Twentieth Century-Fox was sure riding the Shirley Temple gravy train....four films that year. I hadn't remembered that The Garden of Allah was United Artists, so a loan-out for Dietrich. I'm assuming it's been beautifully restored by now but even the prints I've seen are pretty spectacular for early Technicolor. Columbia's Craig's Wife reminded me that I've never seen the Rosalind Russell version, which I understand was very well reviewed. I was surprised to see so many western titles from Paramount; I hadn't realized they were so into the genre, but 1936 was probably a peak year for westerns across the board? Republic's Guns and Guitars made me chuckle; perfect title for anyone writing about singing cowboys. RKO's Muss 'Em Up was the ambiguous title which caught my fancy this time around. I was hoping for hair-pulling chorus girls but it turns out to be a hard-boiled detective yarn with Preston Foster. I sure can't pick 'em.

This was the year when 20th Century Fox was born (a merger of 20th Century Pictures and Fox). From this point forward, 20th Century Pictures titles are no longer released through United Artists, which means UA will have to depend on product from Walter Wanger, Edward Small and other indy producers in the coming years.
Also, 1936 was the first year that supporting actor and supporting actress categories were added to the Academy Awards. Walter Brennan, immensely popular with voters, would win this category three times within five years (no other actor to date has earned three supporting actor Oscars). Brennan would also earn an additional nomination in the category. Gale Sondergaard would be nominated once more a decade later, before she was blacklisted.

I wanted to add a note before I forget...in case people are wondering why I did not include Monogram. Monogram went out of business in 1935, and stayed out of business in 1936. But in mid-1937 the studio was restarted and resumed production of low budget films.
