Good nostalgia
3 March 2019
I can understand people disliking this movie who were not of age to remember the year 1965. It looks and seems really corny.... And yeah, the movie is a drop of a caricature and corny. But, I was 10 years old in 1965, and if you're using today's society as the measuring rod, those times were certainly corny. But the movie isn't that far off from the way it was. Things were so, so different, and this movie does capture the look, dialog, and general mood of society at that time. It was a definite turning point in American society. The fight at the beginning between the teacher and student was definitely something that would have occurred in 1965. People calling this movie silly are way off.... Somebody said much of the cast was embarrassed to have made this movie. Well, most of the cast had no way of knowing what 1965 was like, they are wrong for panning their own movie. The fact is, this movie is entertaining and not all that inaccurate as far as portraying the year 1965. Certainly anybody my age and older would thoroughly enjoy this movie.
