As I write this, Weld is eighty years old. Ruminate on that.
You can drive two hours east of L.A. and see that exact same beautiful Swedish countryside.
In California in the mid 1960s a lot of people still went to church, and it was considered mainstream, not just for religious nuts. Pre-marital sex was still strongly frowned upon, and if a pregnancy occurred, most people would say the couple "had" to get married. My older brother and his girlfriend, seniors in high school, got themselves into that situation, and there was no way they would have remained unmarried, even though they were no more religious than average. It was just the morality of the time. Putting aside the comedy, the movie does reflect mainstream attitudes back then.
McCarthy is funny. Now I have more of a reason to want to see the movie. Thanks!
They were, and still are, marketed as breakfast. It's a psychological phenomenon I've always found puzzling--the way people think of things like Pop Tarts and doughnuts as breakfast, while they wouldn't regard cookies or cake the same way.
I like brown sugar and cinnamon Pop Tarts, and the chocolate ones, but I always thought of them as just a pastry snack, not breakfast. I don't eat them often anymore because I don't want to be fat (not that there's anything wrong with that).
At first I thought it said "Steaming" and laughed at how appropriate that was--like when my dog drops a warm one on the lawn on a really cold morning.
When Australians make a movie, they're the central heroes. It's what film makers do in every country.
For variety, check her out in "The Student Prince", where she shows off her singing talent, and "Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid", where she plays the titular aquatic sylph.
In the '60s and '70s when hippies were a thing, only other hippies took them seriously. Most non-hippie people, including kids and teenagers, laughed at them.

I had no idea MTV even existed anymore. I used to like it in the '80s when they played music videos.
First of all, they believe Jesus actually existed, a claim for which there is no evidence outside the Bible. But if he did exist, he was a Jew, which is Caucasian, which is white.
And gay.
Then go see it! Don't let some random person on Movie Chat spoil it for you.
Nothing wrong with a young dude in a relationship with a hot older woman. It's a common young guy's fantasy.
An anonymous young man (Israel) unleashes a campaign of vengeance against the corrupt and evil leaders (Hamas) who murdered his mother...etc.
Is that the metaphor you were suggesting?
Loaf has no place in the cinema.
Asians like law and order, and a clean neighborhood. This puts them in conflict with those who don't value those things.
You're right. I didn't say there was. But some people are taken aback that he's not married to a supermodel half his age.
If you're gonna wear a white thing pulled all the way up into your crack, you'd better be sure your grommet's good and clean.
