hey xi, i know you like old shit with carey grant or was that bogart, anyways you should watch mr. blandings builds his dream house. i was going to post about it in that 1950s suburbs thread but it scrolled off. it's definitely one of those "the more things change the more they stay the same" kind of moods. someone should remake it with some people from nyc trying to buy a house in the country for remote work during covid. it even has cuck paranoia and a subplot about african-american representation in advertisements. like this conversation could 100% happen in 2022 with no edit:
