You sure are full of yourself, aren't you,
@sneakypete ?
Just for the record, though, your calling me a "church lady" makes me fall to the floor in gales of laughter. It's funny for me to imagine you at your keyboard thinking you're leveling a great insult, and knowing it's really just dopey.
I will always be thankful that Hollywood produced absolutely great pictures in the 30's, with great stars, great acting, and completely watchable from beginning to end.
The self-censorship Hollywood did hasn't hurt you a bit. There's been all kinds of garbage made since they dropped the code that I'm sure titillates you, so you have your entertainment.
But for those of us who prefer plot to porn, I'm glad there was a time when good movies were actually produced without gratuitous nonsense to please the less mature among us.
Here's to romance! Here's to orchestras out in the forest and Mounties bursting into song! Here's to Hollywood's GOLDEN AGE!! ^-^
It's been downhill ever since.
