You could look at movie ratings as a barometer of society at the time. A typical PG-13 movie now would have probably been an R in the 80s.
Or maybe that's just my cynicism and lack of faith in the human race showing.
Why can't any good movies get made anymore? We need another Undercover Blues or Who's Harry Crumb? (or heck, any John Candy movie - honorable mention to Uncle Buck), dammit.
