Great point. Just rent the films. Gentrifiers use the past to show that's it's over. The catch is that people will like the films.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-90396032536795265842012-05-16T16:32:56.340-04:002012-05-16T16:32:56.340-04:00Smithereens and Desperately Seeking Susan are my t...Smithereens and Desperately Seeking Susan are my two favorite '80s movies.
