The Kitsch Show!
Four illustrated reflections on kitsch. 3: Richard Dyer , professor of film studies at Warwick University, asks how intellectuals can enjoy what they know to be kitsch without resorting to inverted commas. He wonders if he can ever return to a simple appreciation of the Queen, The
Waltons or The Sound of Music. He finds an answer in two different versions of Could It Be Magic? (by Take That and Petula Clark ) and the Italian love song Grazie Dei Fiori.
