Lots of hats in the film "Schabernack" (= "Practical Joke"), 1936, Germany, with Paul Hörbiger and Hans Moser - you can watch it here:

(only in German).

Here's one that I watched several times, and well worth watching. "Shadow of a Doubt", (1943), a suspenseful film noir thriller by Alfred Hitchcock. A suave amiable Joseph Cotton, dubbed, the "Merry Widow" killer, is a serial killer who preys on wealthy widows and then murders them for their wealth, is on the run from a nationwide manhunt. He hides out in plain sight in a small town with his sister and her family. His favorite niece begins to suspect that he's the killer that detectives are looking for. I'll leave it there. Cotton is very convincing in this one. He looks and plays the part really well.

When I was once again watching the movies of my absolute favorite comedians, Laurel & Hardy, I noticed the scene with the hats in their movie “Sons of the Deserts” (1933): (there will be lots of others in their other films, but so far I didn't pay attention to this aspect). You can have a look for yourselves:

In my opinion, Mr. Laurel and Mr. Hardy are admirable and adorable. Unfortunately their films aren't shown often enough these days and the younger generation even doesn't know a thing about them.
