The office meeting scene is one of the funniest moments ever caught on film, thanks to Parsons keeping her composure. In some aspects the movie is way out of line, in that it seems like some people wanted to do a “period piece” as an excuse to be racist/misogynist/antisemetic on-screen. Stuff like the small-town corruption is still painfully relevant today. And even the less savory stuff can be informative from the perspective of it being a snapshot of a snapshot of prior cultural norms. That doesn’t make it okay. But the context does matter. (See also to a lesser extent the cringy casual misogyny permeating TOS.)
