Because the stars of yesteryear were real stars and household names and had star quality. Now the people you see in movies and tv shows feel like average joe's that could be bagging your groceries at the supermarket or making your sandwich at Subway. And not even particularly attractive or charismatic average joes at that. Acting at its best should exert something of a magical spell over the viewer, and most of today's breed couldn't even keep my eyes open, much less entrance me. I think that's why I prefer to watch classic TV and movies. When I see what's being mass-produced today, everything (and everyone) just looks the same, and feels the same. There's also often an over-reliance on CGI which often replaces solid acting performances. Not always, mind, but I really do like the charm of older movies. |
