Pleasantville (1998; starring Reese Witherspoon and Tobey Maguire).
This movie is pure propaganda. It’s Herbert Marcuse’s ideology on film. Here’s the basic plot: two modern, White teenagers are mysteriously transported into a 1950s “Leave It To Beaver”-type TV show. The message of this movie is: life sucked in the too-conservative 1950s, it was too rigid, too stifling, too restricting. Only when “progressive” and “liberal” ideas began creeping into American society did life become better. A classic example of political and social “messaging.” (One of the most interesting scenes in the movie is the “art book” scene that occurs in the malt shop, roughly half-way through the film, where the malt shop manager gets excited looking at crappy modern art, such as Piss-casso, and starts imitating that art himself). You should own a copy of this movie on DVD in order to both laugh and curse at it when your friends come over to visit.

Yes, the 1950s. White schools, White neighborhoods, White establishments, White magazines, etc. No fast food–wholesome food prepared at home. It took a long time to destroy White separation in America.
So the Jews produce films like Pleasantville to retroactively mock White culture. They drag everything healthy down into the mud.

Saw it when it came out. Terrible. The people supposedly don’t come alive emotionally until they encounter diversity and multi-culturalism. White culture is presented as harmful to Whites.

Pure propaganda. Exactly what I thought. Especially when the mother was masturbating in the tub.

Reese Witherspoon
She never understood what being OJAY-ED was about.
A vacuous hollywood whore.

I’ve never seen this film and judging from the reviews above it doesn’t exactly sound like a winner. But I have noticed that a lot of the more recent TV shows and movies that deal with the 1940s through the early 1960s look at that era as repressed and gloomy, little more than a black and white prelude to the wicked cool late 1960s and 1970s.
But truth be told most people who lived during the “Summer of Love” had bills to pay, kitchens to remodel, families to support, jobs, mortgages and all the other responsibilities that come with everyday life, no different from people living in any other era. It was only a relatively small number of mostly privileged White and Jewish middle and upper-class kids who had the chance to live on a commune in the desert or ride around the country in brightly painted old school buses following the Grateful Dead from one show to another, tripping and screwing.
So once again the Jews and their Hebrew-wood entertainment machine are distorting the realities of history so that they will conform to a warped, Jewish weltanschauung.

Tim, I think you’re being unfair to hippie culture. It was a White thing. Hippies had the courage to denounce the Establishment as corrupt and intrusive, which it was/is. The Jews who latched on to hippie culture did it for exposure and profit.
Baby boomers (DOB 1946-1962) grew up listening to their parents brag about WW2 and killing Europeans. So they broke out. A lot of Vietnam veterans took up hippie culture after coming home from such a phony war. In Texas, there was a thin line between hippies, bikers and longhaired rednecks. They partied together. Hippie culture penetrated Texas rodeos. Some of the cowboys had long hair. Buying and selling drugs behind the bucking chutes wasn’t uncommon. The emergence of the the Texas rodeo hoods was a nod to their outlaw ancestors 100 years before.
Every time White people rebel, all the other Whites criticize the rebellion. Look at what happened at Kent State, May 4, 1970.
I would like to see a return of the spirit, courage and creativity by Whites who dismissed the criminal of government of the 1960s. And they did it standing in the Sun.
Race mixing in the Baby boomer generation was nil.

hippy culture was joo fostered with their media control.
TIME the stinking kike magazine promoted it in 1967. IT was a war on US along with vietnam to pull off any chance that WHITES would organize against the LBJ kike cabal that open the borders and removed OUR rights since 1787.
vietnam was a smoke screen for war on US and LOOTING US!

There’s a great deal of truth in what you say, fd, but the world being the way it is sooner or later the hippie thing was bound to be corrupted by money and greed, the lust for power and for under-aged girls. But some of the original spirit of Flower Power still exists today…no doubt about that. And that spirit can definitely be used towards building a healthy pro-White society.

Looking back, that period from about 1966-1972 does make one nostalgic. Of course when this song was being sung by Keith Partridge Leslie Van Houten, Patricia Krenwinkle and Tex Watson were on trial just a few miles away in downtown LA for the Tate-LaBianca murders.

I saw hippie culture as a return to White paganism. I never heard a hippie mention Jews in a conversation down South. Not in 10 thousand years could the media control or promote hippie culture. The culture spread across the country at once. No one could organize such a massive, natural gathering. Arlo Guthrie, CCR, Jefferson Airplane, peformed at Woodstock. Such a White gathering would be billed as a racist music venue today.
The longhairs went to the funerals when the bodybags were coming home 100 a week. The police state citizens who hated hippie culture were promoting the war in Southeast Asia.

Tim, that’s a clean cut music gathering (The Partidge Family). Not ready for prime time players. I enjoyed the tranquility. And you’re right. Hippie culture faded once the purity was contaminated.
The strange thing about the Tate-LaBianca murders is that Manson never killed anyone.

Ant, do you think our art would be accepted in Pleasantville?

I don’t.

“You should own a copy of this movie on DVD in order to both laugh and curse at it when your friends come over to visit.”
No you shouldn’t. Don’t fund them.

fd is a jew shill. Go read Joe Sobran’s article about Woodstock.

You can always buy a used DVD or rent it from the library or Netflix. That way you avoid directly putting any more shekels into Hollywood Harry’s pockets. But if it’s a good movie then the people who worked on it, Jew and Gentile alike, deserve their fair share of the sales, rentals, royalties, etc. That may not be the Jews’ way of doing business but it should be ours, should it not?
25 June, 2014 at 6:13 pm
I buy used DVDs and CDs. I never buy new. Why pay retail?

johnson joe, is a backward racist who worships the status quo. Arlo Guthrie would tell you and Sobran to F**K OFF.
Woodstock was a White music venue.
Sobran was a hardcase conservative stuck in the mud. He probably hated rock and roll and outlaw country music. And he put the Jew god before White people. Not a hint of novelty in his writings. Same old S**T. He belonged to the Buchanan/ Ann Coulter persuasion. And they are completely worthless.

fd Says: “Woodstock was a White music venue. “
Do you know your history? Woodstock, like most 1960s counter-culture events, was produced by Jews.
26 June, 2014 at 2:53 pm
Are “Socrates and johnson joe” the same person? A lot of that goes on at this website. The poorly educated Socrates is a poor excuse for a racist.
The fans at Woodstock were over 90% White–The music was over 90% White. Woodstock continues to be the largest music gathering in all the pages of history. The music lovers who braved the crowds look like a race of pagans of ancient Europe.
The so called counter-culture was a thousand times better than the scumbags running Washington. At least they had the courage of their convictions.
I’m way down South defending Northerners for going to a great music festival. Racism in America cannot get off the ground because every time a group of White people do something, they are insulted by those who do nothing.

fd, you are hereby banned from posting comments at VNN for 1 month. Keep stirring shit, and it’ll be a permanent ban.

By the way, here’s an article about the Jewish producers of the 1969 Woodstock concert:
