Thesis

Steven Johnson's book Everything Bad is Good For You argues that contrary to popular belief, today's popular culture is actually becoming more complex and demanding. This point is made clear through a close examination of the 1961 movie Breakfast at Tiffany's compared and the 2006 movie The Holiday.
