Elia Kazan directed “On the Waterfront” with Marlon Brando —it was a tour de force.
Hollywood freaking HATED (and still does hate) him.
He exposed the criminal nature of some labor unions.
Hollywood has been continuously exposed, but they only got hurt one time that I am aware of...
I don’t know what can be done.
As long as the so called “media” is considered the watchdog of society, the FOX will still be watching the hen house.
Yes, that’s all very true !
And recall the silent response from the audience when Kazan was presented a lifetime award at an oscar show. One of the most notable sourpusses on camera was the worthless slug DeNiro.
I remember that Oscar award where Nolte stayed seated......Ed Harris and Speilberg too but Speilberg clapped
Scorsese and DeNiro to their credit showed respect to Kazan as did Warren Beatty and Helen Hunt and Meryl Streep and Coppola
Hollywood is very urban and secular Jewish and sensitive and creative and other minorities all of which lead to a very high incidence of a cultural predisposition to leftism and progressivism and ambivalence at best or hostility at worst to Christians
It’s not new it’s just much much much less restrained.
The old studio bosses were just smarter and knew their audience
Speilberg and Katzenberg and Weinstein(a detestable man) amongst others like Michael Lombardo bankrolled or produced many targeted hits on Bush and GOP and war during Bush years and did so repeatedly even though they all bled negative financial return
And the same cabal of Anti traditional culture and anti conservative Christian studio folks will do it all over again against Trump or Cruz or Rubio
Mark my words
The old guys 50 years ago even though some were lefties woulda never done that
They feared pushback and losing money cause they remember being broke
