From their beginnings to the present day, B movies have provided opportunities both for those coming up in the profession and others whose careers are waning. Celebrated filmmakers such as Anthony Mann and Jonathan Demme learned their craft in B movies.

Some actors, such as Béla Lugosi and Pam Grier, worked in B movies for most of their careers.
