Not sure, but maybe after the John Wayne/Jimmy Stewart generation died? And certainly the Vietnam War polarization of the country contributed; Hollywood woke up to its liberal roots at that time, for sure. There are surely many reasons.

What do you think?

It goes at least as far back as the 30s, when so many hollywood actors and writers became Communist party members or fellow travelers. They began inserting pro-Soviet sentiments into their movies during WWII.
