Makes you think. Just what is portrayed as real.

PBS has a short series where they put a modern family in a turn of the century house. In the into they said they turned to different sources to make it authentic. They noted that one source they used was magazines of the day. Then they said do you live like people depicted in current magazines? Well. No. I don't and I don't personally know anybody who does. Believe me come in here and take pics of my place and you won't sell too many magazines. Yet in 100 years some sap might assume I lived like Better Homes & Gardens.

Hollywood and history is mostly fantasy.
