  • 1940s

  • 1930s

  • 1960s

Answer

The 1940s marked a period of decline in Capra's filmmaking career. Despite several successful films in the 1930s, including "It Happened One Night" and "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington," Capra's box office success and critical acclaim waned in the following decade. Several reasons contributed to this decline, including changes in Hollywood's production landscape and shifting audience preferences, as well as personal challenges Capra faced during that period.
