aceterrier helpfully smacks down my lack of reading comprehension: Book? 1950s? Did you read the description you quoted? The only thing worse than dewey-eyed nostalgia is knee-jerk dismissals of the past based on hasty, unreflective assumptions. Screw Rock ‘n’ Roll would like to apologize for this error. Usually my wild fulminations are based on something vaguely connected with reality. Also… I really don’t know how I missed the words “Criterion Collection.” Major fail on this one. (I am still opposed to anything that combines the words “Golden Age of Television” with old-timey black and white pictures, but we’ll let that slide.)
