Simpler times, even in movies...

As I watched the movie called SOUND OF MUSIC,

last night…I was thinking about how it was so nice

to go to the movies in the past. Even the King mention

it.

The King and I, as we watch the previews on television

or the ones that come on Netflix… have said a couple

of times.. how it seems like the movies are getting

more violent.  And as we look thru the choices, it

is hard to find something new that isn’t so violent.

I like movies that make me laugh… and I also like

true stories… The King likes westerns, and we

both like ones about kids that do well.  We just

aren’t into stories of people beating or killing

each other.  He likes a thriller from time to time..

Guess our common ground is the comedies.

I heard years and years ago.. that as the nation goes

the movies go the opposite.  That during wars we

had more comedy and musicals.. and when the

wars were over, we did thrillers and cops and robbers

type..  Well, if that is true, then we must be over

joyed with happiness
