An Ode to the Golden Age

As you know, I’ve taken many a stroll through Hollywood Studios (the former MGM Studios) in Walt Disney World. It’s dedicated to the golden age of films, a Hollywood and Vine stuck in the 1930s. And while Epcot is my favorite park, I still like Hollywood Studios. I wouldn’t mind walking down it one day in an old 30’s inspired outfit.

Anyway, I love to go on the Great Movie Ride while I’m there. Which means I’ve seen the preshow many, many times over. And I’ve seen some trailers for the old black and white pictures, but they all start with talking pictures. Nothing from the silent era. It’s like an era that’s been forgotten.
But not completely—this year’s Academy Award winner “The Artist” is a love letter to this age.
