back then you only had like 4 movie studios , and you may , or my not have even had TV
now there are 600 movie studios and 7,000 TV channels , there are like 700,000 actors out there now day , some , more talented then other
but talent wise , I believe the actors of old , were every bit as talented as they are today , the style of acting may have changed , but thats noting to do with talent , even actors like Bob Hope , his timing and delivery takes every lit bit as much talent as any great dramatic actor , maybe even more so
