idiom

What does this sentence mean?

"Griffith says he talked Corman around…"

Talked him around? That's a phrase I've never heard. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Meve Stills (talk • contribs) 18:41, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"Talk around" has two different meanings. To talk [someone] around = "to persuade someone to agree with or support you" . To talk around [a subject] = "to avoid talking about a subject". MacMillan dictionary. Can be confusing if you haven't heard both usages. -- Naaman Brown (talk) 09:38, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

teen drive in

"... "cheap teen movies" released for the drive-in market ... " I see this meme repeated a lot in discussion of 1950s B-movies often by commentators who read like they were not alive in the 1950s and who saw these movies only in retrospect. In 1959 or 1960 I saw this movie at the Rialto (a second-run B-movie walk-in theater). I saw "House of Usher" (usually listed as another of Corman's " cheap teen drive-in movies) at the Strand (a first-run A-movie walk-in theatre). In the 1950s Mom and Dad took me and my younger brother to the drive-in theater on family night out. It was not until the 1960-1970s that drive-ins shifted from mostly family to mostly youth date night venue. History is what actually happened even if history is passed on as a written cliche. -- Naaman Brown (talk) 10:07, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
