Since we've the other end, I thought this might give some breathing room to a happier set.
In the 'films you used to love and now think are crap' I mentioned a recently-discovered ability to laugh at 'Showgirls' instead of my previous reaction to the film, which was trying to implode my optic nerves.
Last week, a friend of mine confessed to watching one of the Rainbow Brite things, and while, as a young and untasteful child, he was totally disgusted with the whole deal, in his late twenties, it became, for him, a wonderful experience.
I think, most of the time, many of us, are not swayed at all in our opinion on entertainments, by time, by other people harping on about how excellent or horrid something is, but once in a while...
And it's really something, isn't it? Even if it's just a passive "I can now watch X when it comes on television," there's something reassuring about the human condition.
Though, often enough, these newfound tolerances and/or loves, are not the sort of thing we'd readily admit in public. So, anybody else care to divulge? |
