Rocky Horror Picture Show is 50

Great little history from Ars Technica of all places!

Yet in some respects, it’s as relevant as ever. “There are still those extreme prejudices in society and Rocky Horror still provides a space for people to be themselves, or to be someone else, for the two hours that it takes to do the film,” Milinovich said. “The line in the film is ‘Don’t dream it, be it.’“ People still take that line to heart.

Happy Birthday, Rocky!
