I love old films. Musicals in particular. I'm lighthearted and idealistic. I love lighthearted, Idealistic, and let's face it, cheesy...Films. There's just one thing I don't understand.

I COMPLETELY AGREE ON THE KISSING FRONT.

Even though that sounds odd.

I've noticed it, too, and it bothers me not only because it looks ridiculous, but also because it's so friggin unsatisfying to watch. IF I'VE WAITED TWO HOURS FOR A KISS, IT'D BETTER BE A GOOD ONE. :D

That's awesome! Finally someone who understands. It shouldn't be called kissing because their lips don't move. They're just pressing their faces together. If they did it a little quicker they'd look as though they're head-butting each other. It's infuriating. If 1950's hollywood standards made them resort to the fake kissing, they should just exclude the kissing alltogether, am I right?

Really though, I do agree. Sometimes, I think that the tension itself is preferrable to the annoyance that comes with non-kisses.

Thank you. It's nice to have a kindred spirit on this matter. It's really been driving me nuts. I've been having an extended marathon of sorts and it just had me at my wit's end.

Separate beds.

wow.

Sex in the fifties must have been like a planned event.

"So honey, how about friday at 10:00, when the kids are asleep, we push the beds together and 'do the deed',"
