I saw this in second grade back in the early 70's and it scared me from ever talking to strangers again. Which has really made life difficult since I work in sales. I'm pretty sure this film is why Generation X drives their kids everywhere and never lets them out of their sight. Like some parents even show up with their kid at job interviews. That's some messed up parenting. Anyway, my Baby Boomer parents had to be reminded by the TV that I even existed. Now this movie was already 10 years old when I saw it but there wasn't much difference in consumer technology and fashion between the two decades. It looked just as fresh in 75 as it probably did when it came out in 65. As for the message, I think it was if a stranger touches you, you should stop drop and roll and if you catch fire run and tell an adult.

Archie Bunker was made to be the villain unfairly. Liberal scumbag Norman Lear knew he'd make money making conservatives out to be racists. It's the protoplasmic miasma that evolved into wokeness. All Archie wanted was to see his daughter marry into prosperity and have her own family, make enough money to be comfortable at the end of the day and be left alone. He was constantly goaded by people who should have been allies into saying stupid racist stuff.

That's about all I have to say but it seems like there's some third grade nanny software that demands a word count that's not as succinct as is possible.
