Visiting The Tower in \A Good Man Is Hard to Find\: An Excerpt from \O'Connor 'Midrash'\
2021
The Nickelodeon mentioned in the song is obviously a coin-operated music maker-player piano, jukebox, or radio-and \"Nickelodeon\" is usually capitalized in the printed lyrics as though it were being used as a brand name. [...]there is no prior record of \"Nickelodeon\" being used as a brand or common name for any coin-operated device, and the trademark owner was a chain of silent movie theaters that operated from 1905 to 1915. The ones I remember played 45 rpm records, and through the glass of the front, one could watch the machine choose the record and set it up to play. 141:8-10 From Wikipedia: \"Tennessee Waltz\" is a popular/country music song with lyrics by Redd Stewart and music by Pee Wee King written in 1946 and first released in January 1948. The woman has been insulted, it seems to me, and she tries to cover her hurt with a forced smile. 141:26 Hissing like a snake-a foreshadowing of the reference to a snake when the grandmother reaches out to The Misfit-the grandmother reprimands the girl in hushed tones, fearing that making a big scene would bring more dishonor to the family. 141:27-28 Red Sam, a true cock of the walk, vanishes the discomfort of the scene by doing what the grandmother had just avoided: shaming a family member in a public manner.
