TV in general is pretty much the same. Have the right liberal credentials or just be a willing yes man lackey and one can advance and also get invited to go on good paying freelance gigs.
After so many years of beating my head against the wall and going nowhere in TV land, I finally escaped the plantation.
From what ones I know of from the old country that make big bucks in their regular jobs and side stuff, they are still good at keeping everything a tight little club. No unwashed peasants or unfavorite people please.
My friend said: ‘They don’t make films ... they make deals’. And of course, the ‘product’ proves what he said.
If my life depended on it, I couldn’t tell you when I last bought a ticket and went to see a Hollywood movie.
The good films are few and far between (I’ll wait and see them on TV) and the rest aren’t WORTH the price of a ticket, anyway!
