this is a case of our imposing our views retroactively, which does not work.
Admittedly, it is difficult if not impossible for me to avoid this, as I was not alive when GFI was released.
I have no trouble with such terminology when it is essential to the film, such as 12 Years a Slave (outstanding movie BTW). But I don't like it being used frivolously. I won't go so far as to call its use frivolous in GFI but it certainly was not essential.
