Tasteful Necking

David always wants me to watch all these old movies with him. I never really want to, and I can never quite figure out why I have such aversions to these films. I mean, it's not like people were less interesting or funny 30 and 40 plus years ago. And David gets really into these movies; he takes it personally that I don't like them.

As I'm watching "Magnum Force" with Clint Eastwood, I'm totally drawn into the plot, despite my initial unwillingness. And then I realize why these movies bug the shit out of me. They're totally sexist and essentially portray all women as easy big-chested fucking bimbos who have no sense whatsoever and always get hysterical, while the men are all stoic, quick-witted, in charge and always keep their cool.

And today's films are completely gender-sensitive, thoughtful and innovative. Riiight. But at least there are some movies being made now that don't completely make me want to retch.

By the way, the title of this blog refers to a comment David made about a disputed sex scene in Magnum Force. I felt that the director tastefully alluded to sex by showing a couple making out and then cutting to the next shot, but David facetiously argued that there was no way they could have had sex because they were just "tastefully necking."
