Quote:Lincoln: I don't believe there is any general concenscous about when Hollywood's "Golden Age" was, or if there ever was one." Scarlotti: Do a Google search for "golden age of hollywood" -- there's definitely a consensus. Folks may quibble about the start and end years -- but they're all in agreement that it was pre-1970. Google searches don't always reflect scholarly research. Plenty of respected film critics historians, including Roger Ebert, Gene Siskel, David Thomson, and Peter Biskind have identified the '70s as a high point in American Film History. Also, the term "Golden Age" can refer to other factors, such as more films getting produced, and more of them getting shot in Hollywood, itself." Quote: Lincoln: You're entitled to your opinion, but many consider the '70s one of the greatest periods in film history, and the lack of censorship was part of the reason. These people are entitled to their opinions, too. Scarlotti: Certainly they are. Just as I'm entitled to disagree with them -- and them with me. Ahh, but when you advocate censorship--which would effectively ban many of the films that made the '70s great as well as new ones like them--you're saying that they're not entitled to their opinions.
