A couple of nights ago, I turned on one of my favorite cable stations, TCM. 1935's "Top Hat" (with Astaire/Rogers) was about to show. Host Ben Mankiewicz had to add his smarmy, irrelevant, Social-Justice-Warrior 2020 two cents: "How could they be so frivolous in the middle of the Great Depression?" Shut up, already. We're not Soviet Russia, creating only grim, strait-laced propaganda films. Gawd, I hate left-wing fascists trying to tell us how to think and trying to tell artists what is or is not "appropriate" to create.
