Old Movies Are Creepy

May 23rd, 2008

So I was just watching the 1955 version of Daddy Long Legs on TCM, and this type of movie has always creeped me out. What is it with “classic” movies, where there’s always some fifty-something or sixty-something guy romancing an 18 or 20 year old girl, and nobody finds anything wrong with this? My Fair Lady is another example. What’s up with that?
