1975: what’s going on?
Because things went very wrong in the formatting of this blog entry, I’m redoing it in a tardy attempt to preserve the dignity of my blog.
I found various pieces of info about movies, books, music and fashion, but sadly, I looked up very little about politics or larger events in society.
I gather, the best way to sum up the information that I did find and/or had enough background to understand is stated in the two movie titles I originally provided: One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest and Monty Python and the Holy Grail, an ambivalence between the serious and the silly.
This connection is perhaps further supported by the Khmer Rouge Period in Cambodia and the permed hair of current fashion trends. Perhaps, the silliness is an attempt to ignore the unpleasantness of contemporary society?
This is probably true with every year though and I conclude that I am making trivial connections where if I had more time, I’m sure better things would have resulted…
