Reader appreciates columnist’s views

Bravo to columnist Nate Rushing for his Thursday column.

Though many of us can agree, let’s compare apples to apples. The spectacular musical films of the midcentury were not the pop music of the Big Band Era, nor do they bear much resemblance to Disney’s corporate tween products.

Yes, the Hollywood studio system is, alas, gone.

 Thankfully, those performances are immortalized on film. But talent does exist today (on Broadway). And for tomorrow’s stars, we need look no further than our own UF theater and music departments.
