It is not a matter for painting or building cars like 100 years ago, it is the quality and innovation, the fantasy that we, with childs eyes, may or may not discover. A variation on diverses themes, in the music or elsewhere! One thing must be clear, all arts ressemble to themselves with their helping hand to reach the divine in us, to transcend the commun in something exceptional; When being reach this goa lis then an " oeuvre d´art. " For ever.
From day one in Mesopotany, through the Grotte of lascaux and so on, mankind was able to reach deep into the stars above us.
Theater and his poor parent ( I consider film a lesser art, showing already the decadence in the McDo time of our ) can reach us through the same artifice than music or writing and painting.
In one word quality never " outdate " and never will. The simple question, is then, what is quality? And again the answer is, what is moving us, sensually and intelectually speaking?
As for " L´Atalante " versus Mr. Deeds it is like intellectualism versus romantisism, the same goal, different ways.
