I use reference matherial... a lot of it, I once saw that Miez does, and, if the big masters does, we all can! ^_^

My advise is to get a DVD and rip material... I can think in "the Others" a good Spanish film starred by Nicole Kidman...

Maximus DVD makes pics of the DVD played in your computer...

EDIT: LOL! I haven´t seen Miez´s post when I was posting this... nice coincidence!

Perhaps the game 'Mafia'

The Coen Brothers have made a number of films set early last century, but try Barton Fink, it should give you a feel for the styles of the time:



As a bonus, the excellent writing it should give you a few tips for making your dialogue seem authentic.

You might want to disregard some parts of the film as far as research goes. You'll know which bits I mean if you watch it.

Just remember to include anti-semetism and hats, and you'll be fine.

thx all... everything is nice... but i still haven't found that mental inst. cell...

I'm not sure you'll find many pictures of institutions built in the thirties, many hospitals are old buildings.

This asylum is quite famous and was in use in the 1930s:
