    I think you mean it’s old.

    Before audiences had all the tropes figured out simple stories were amazing. All the contrivances we add today we only add to make bad movies seem more interesting or complicated.

    It’s why perfectly executed, simple stories are still compelling. But Oklahoma! certainly isn’t one of them.

    Edit: oh, and some people love the music

      I do like the music, but the great thing about a lot of musicals is you can just listen to the music without needing to watch the show.

      Nah, just because something is old doesn’t mean it’s simple.
