Just started Netflix's new crime drama "Mindhunter".
About 16min into the first episode, the main character - a stiff, traditional FBI special agent in 1977 - tries to hit on an attractive, fashionable, female, sociologist graduate student at a bar.
Holden: Hey.
Debbie: Hey. What are you looking at?
Holden: I like your outfit. What is that, a jumpsuit? What do you call that?
Debbie: This? I call it a jumpsuit.
Holden: Stylish.
Debbie: What do you call that? You look like a Mormon. You look like my dad.
Holden: Is he a Mormon?
Debbie: No, but he looks like one.
Holden: So does mine. He bought me this suit, as a matter of fact.
Debbie: Did he buy you those nice shiny shoes?
Holden: Yes. I have one brown pair and one black pair. I've got sneakers but I had to buy those myself.
Debbie: What kind of grown-up lets their parents choose their clothes for them?
Holden: Are you coming on to me?
Debbie: How do you like my approach?
Didn't know that pop culture associated Mormons with boring, unfashionable dress.
Do you think this is a accurate depiction?
