Recensione in evidenza
Having vaguely remembered these from clip shows with smug right-on celebrities tut tutting on 'How terrible we were back then' type thing. I wanted to see what all the fuss was about when they started to be sneaked onto the internet. I have to say I was astonished on how beautiful they looked and how lovely they sounded. These were incredibly slick productions for both even now or then and you can see everyone involved from cast, costume to cameras were giving it 110% to entertain.
Now to address the elephant in the room,it is probably fair to say that many forms of entertainment has its origins in something unpleasant, just as the 'whiteface' of a clown goes back to sick people with the plague..no white person looks like that if they are healthy, just as no black person looks like a minstrel in real life.
The older generation that watched these shows were enjoying a homage to Americana and British vaudeville that they remembered and people like Al Jolson that had given them comfort through very hard times. It was an escapement fantasy and thinking about the mockery of a race never came into it.
