Well, I mean, first off, just something like Last Tango in Paris was a big deal.

Big deal, yeah.

Wouldn't have been a big deal today at all.

Not at all.

But we don't have time for big deals anymore.

I mean it's just everything is moving so quickly that no matter who it is or what happens we're just on to the next news cycle.

Well the problem with that of course is that that then renders everything disposable.

Yeah.

Flooding toward us that it's.
