About this Quote

This quote by Rick Moranis assesses the 1950s, a time of terrific change in the show business. He remembers the start of early television and rock-and-roll, 2 of the most prominent kinds of home entertainment in the 20th century. He also keeps in mind that, regardless of the great modifications that occurred in the 1950s, not much has actually altered since then. This suggests that, while the show business has continued to progress, it has actually ended up being progressively generic and homogenized. This might be viewed as a critique of the current state of the entertainment industry, which is often slammed for its absence of originality and imagination. Moranis' quote is a tip that, while the entertainment industry has actually altered a lot given that the 1950s, it still has a long way to go.
