We're Knights of the Round Table,
Our show are formidable,
But many times, we're given rhymes
That are quite unsingable.
We're Opera mad in Camelot,
We sing from the diaphragm
a looooooot.
In war we're tough and able,
Quite indefatigable,
Between our quests we sequin vests,
And impersonate Clark Gable.
It's a busy life in Camelot,
I have to push the pram a lot.

watched that movie recently.

"nevermind we shall not go to camelot. it is a silly place."

it took 13 days to get from NY to California

i was going to say something similar but you beat me to it ..

the part people remember fondly of the 20's is the part that is glamorized in movies.

the same way that - in the future - people will look at each decade of the past and think that what the tiny minority was wearing - gleamed from books and magazines and films ...was the norm for the time.

in otherwords .. just like hollywood has always portrayed as the standard : bullshit, smoke and mirrors.
