That is when performers had talent. Any more, it is about looks and
money and looks and money. I miss the days when Hollywood had talent
and put out movies that had real actors in them that could act....AND
behave or at least keep the bad stuff out of the press sigh...


There were downsides to the "good old days"
of Hollywood. The corporate studios that controlled
who could work and where, the blacklists, the theater
contracts that kept independant and foreign films
out of circulation, screening boards that made sure
all dialogue was "PC", no market for minority actors
or directors, no market for movies that contradicted
foreign policy or "family values", etc. The current
climate has it's drawbacks, but I prefer it over the
sanitized one of yesteryear.
