Perspective

A 1977 Christmas movie, where the patriarch, in a small New England town, decries the death of Christmas.  Thirty five years ago. The scenes show streets full of decorations and music, actual Santas asking for Salvation Army gifts and ringing bells. Everyone greeting "Merry Christmas", as if it were the immutable order of things.

Seems like The Golden Age by comparison.
