The second alternative is correct (B).

During the Great Depression the film industry became the great highlight of the arts.

The 1930s and 1940s were considered the Golden Age of Cinema. The technologies developed at the time made the films more realistic and cinema was replacing the Theater in the position of main source of entertainment.

Going to the movies became a social event, so people, tired of the effects of the Great Depression, used the film sections as a source of leisure and socialization, which was good for the minds of people in financial depression.
