  Last weekend I played my 15 & 11 year old daughters 'Adams Rib' & 'Philidelphia Story' - which are films of my parents generation. We all really enjoyed them.

  My 15 year old then later followed these up with 'Cruel Intentions' - which she described as sick.

  It seems that a lot of wit and subtlety has been leached out of our society.

    Sophistication went lost. Wit too.

  ... but it seems most mainstream studios think that their entire audience consists of 14 year old boys, which is a bizarre concept indeeed.
  THese so called comedies are the equivalent of the horror, monster and surf films of the 50s and 60s... but with one difference... they are much more e xpensive to make.

    It depends. For the world as today rightly so, for the film title one toast too muchI think.
    Mad ( the film ) was too much of a patchwork, but still I like it much.
