My attempt at a comprehensive list of feature-length and short sound films produced in America between 1930 and July 1934 (plus others included on pre-code.com, and Wikipedia's and Letterboxd's Pre-Code film lists).

History themed films & series from the end of the Medieval times to French Revolution

Cate Blanchett in Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007)

Movies about great women in history -  All kind of movie: biopic, documentary, fiction/ bad ones and good ones, etc... This list has no particular order. I choose not only the most famous ones. My selection is based in some cathegories:  1 - women artists: writers, musicians, painters, actresses, dancers, etc 2 - women in politics: queens, leaders, warriors, revolutionaries 3 - women scientists and philosophers 4 - feminists 5 - ordinary but brave/engaged women (category with almost unknown women) 6 - or only (not so)famous women with interesting profiles or that were beyond their time. 

List under construction: I accept suggestions.
