A childhood belief about films

I spent my childhood Saturday afternoons watching a lot of old musicals on TV.

I used to believe that grownups got involved in song and dance routines as part of their day to day lives.

It used to bother me that I wouldn't know what to do if a bunch of singing and dancing strangers leapt up to me and tried to incorporate me into their number.

I consoled myself by supposing that as I got older the dance steps and the words would come to me naturally, like other grownup ways.
