Watched Pleasantville again the other day and was struck by how similar the world turning into color is to a liberal opening their eyes to the deception by the big media, double standards, self serving politicians, etc. The key in the lock moment is not the same the ones in the movie or for us here today. But once the light has been turned on everything looks different.

Agreed. It was a smear on the 1950s.
I agree. There’s a YouTube channel called Black Pilled that did an analysis of Pleasantville saying exactly that.
I mean, how many movies have we seen that make the 1950’s look stupid? He places it in the context of all these movies that try to get people to forget that there was a time (not that long ago) when 1 working parent could afford a house in the suburbs, a car, 3+ kids, and have money left over to put into savings. It would make sense for Hollywood leftists to memory hole that era (and try to make it look horribly backwards).
I’d post a link to the video but I can’t find the video on his channel. He’s anti-Q but to give credit where credit is due, he’s really good at analyzing films.
