In the 30s and 40s, the labor melodrama, featuring people working dangerous blue collar jobs, was a whole genre. These days it has come back as workplace reality TV where the jobs are often dangerous, sometimes duck-related.
Does anyone else feel that in recent decades movies rarely depict average working people? In the 70s and 80s we had movies about struggling families, stories about people most of us could understand. Not necessarily about the struggle, but where it was an obvious factor.

Telling my vet friend how much my childhood budgie loved me. He told me it was probably my glasses as he'd see the reflection as another bird and they're highly social. Feel gutted for the late Capt Blue Budge.

Me when I arrive at the party with a random cab sav I grabbed at the Wine Rack near the subway station
The wine is for your statues, O Falcon, Lord of wine. May your throat receive it as provision; may your courtiers go around you carrying the gifts of Khargeh. Receive it to your bosom, for I brought your wine. (WWO)

I regret to inform you that “1979” by Smashing Pumpkins was released in 1996, which is now 30 years ago. Meaning a similar song released in 2026 would be called “2009”

Who’s up for some star gazing? When I was a kid, The Brown Derby was the be-all, end-all of classic Hollywood and that’s where we’re going today (We’ve been here before, but not in 1936) Who else is surprised we can get a $1.00 dinner?
