Movies you won’t see anytime soon, con’d

A follow-up to my post “Movies you won’t see anytime soon.” How could I forget the chronological plot elements you’ll almost never see, such as:
+ The 1950s: An employee at a movie studio thinks it’s terrible that Senator McCarthy is trashing people’s reputations, but points out to his colleagues that there are millions of Soviet troops forcibly occupying Eastern Europe, and the USSR stole the hydrogen bomb so they could use it on us, so maybe there’s something to this communist threat after all?
+ The 1960s: A kid from a radical leftist New York family goes to college and starts hanging around the hippies. He discovers that drugs and free love aren’t as good as his parents told him they’d be. He rebels by burning his Jimi Hendrix records, switching his major to Finance, and courting a demure coed from Utica.

  1. Finance? How much duller can you get? At least make him switch his major to something interesting, like Classics.
