Often, in discussions about old movies, someone will say, “That movie couldn’t be made today.”, and inevitably someone else will disagree.

Look up all the stunts Buster Keaton did, and shiver. Or The Little Rascals or Hal Roach’s Rascals, whatever they were called.
Or the 1968 version of Romeo and Juliet - while probably one of the best versions ever, nobody today would dare to think doing a movie like that today - it would be criminal.
That doesn’t mean they couldn’t do it today, it would just be a weurd cgi mess wuth marvel level cutaways
Well, the Rascals would be 100% cgi, not just because of the sometimes dangerous things the kids did, but also because they would not be allowed to be 12+ hours a day on set… at that age, they can only be on set for two hours a day IIRC, so filming this today with real actors would be horribly expensive.
And don’t even think about topless bedscenes with a 13 or 14 year old actress…
