And you wonder why kids brains are full of oatmeal when they graduate college?

James Deaville, who teaches music at Carleton University, insists the fictional town of Bedford Falls is just too white – a racist construct emblematic in the musical score. “Listen and pay attention to the sounds of the movie and that’s where the racism lies, in the music,” the leftist academic whined to the New York Post.

Deaville, an author who lectures about music and sound in movies, insist the melodies that underwrite the beloved Yuletide epic are all wrong.

 

“The music in Pottersville is boogie woogie and jazz, a Black type of sound, but when the town is called Bedford Falls, the song George and his wife Mary sing to each other is ‘Buffalo Gals,’ a white traditional standard,” he said.

He also griped that Bedford Falls is populated by mostly whites “apart from a Black housekeeper,” and slammed Frank Capra, the film’s producer and director, as a racist.
