I say this to highlight the fact that a fondness for old styles of art and music because of its association with a nonexistent ideal has no bearing in the here and now. However, there is nothing wrong with enjoying classical styles or appreciating older art forms. All artists should study the masters who advanced the form. But it is foolish to disavow a new take on an old art form because of an unrealistic association with a time that never existed.
A great work of art will take a subject and give it importance, and arguably a voice, it never had before. The truth is, many people do believe everything they see on TV, because good television (and yes, there are good programs on television from time to time) is good art, and art makes things important. When the weight of it is dropped in your lap at 10:00, 9:00 central, you might find yourself believing something you never thought you would believe, whether it is true or not.
