Those were the days... back when comedians didn't need to be vulgar and
offensive to get a laugh....

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>...

Yep, just needed to be funny; even that is lacking these days in many
cases.

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.

The story is that Foster Brooks was a director or producer who was
interviewing a bunch of actors for a drunk scene. They all pushed too
hard and came out unbelievable, so Brooks said, "Here's hoe to do it"
and proceeded to do so. It stuck with him ever since.

An acquaintance used to be his next-door neighbor and said he was a
genius!

All true! Still the quality of acting and movies overall were IMHO better
then(even though they were before I was born). It was formulaic but it was
more about talent of the performers and directors while still making huge
profits and not just about who is the hottie of the month, gore,sex or
another overpaid ham's political views. If only we could combine the good of
both times then we would really have something.
