Generation Gap

A reminder of my age. Over the past few years, I have spoken with young people who were unfamiliar with:

  • Spencer Tracy
  • Diana Rigg
  • Andy Devine
  • Wallace Beery
  • Rube Goldberg
  • Redd Foxx
You know, the essentials.

Hopefully, some will make an effort to learn.

Jean,

I hope so. I have been surprised at how many young people avoid watching black-and-white films.

My youngest didn't know who John Wayne was. Was never more disappointed but young people have different priorities

Chris,

I noticed that my children grew up more with space films than with westerns.
