They’re businesses, honey. They’re supposed to be making money.

Jessica Lange is still around and alive?

But, creativity died a long time ago in Hollywood. She hasn’t been paying attention.

But, Hollywood is now sacrificing profits for wokeness. So, again, she must’ve been brain-dead for the past 5-10 years.

The right creativity, properly executed yields corporate profits.

Win-win.

Jessica your industry is dying. You are ancient by the standards of it. You are also a typical hollywood raving leftist loon using virtue signalling to announce your exit. All very convenient. Adios

I’ve read that filmmakers are now filming for shorter attention spans, brought about by computers and cell phones.

I think AI imaging is a far greater danger to an actor.

Yeah, but, that's not what's been happening.

She should’ve realized that 40 years ago.... but then again I thought she retired 40 years ago.

Wrong. Creativity and corporate profits are both secondary to woke ideology.

Jessica, try getting together with some of your friends and paying for a film to be made the way you want it to be made and see how it does.

Movie making is like any other business, you give the customer what he or she wants.

No one is watching The crap about gays and racism. Movies that swap races are ignored. The entertainment industry is no longer interested in entertainment but trying to “enlighten”, and educate the audience and i for one have no interest in that at all. My tastes in films are far more old fashioned, give me a good, honest war film, a good spy or suspenseful film will do. If you show me some gay dudes making out, I’m gone, bye bye.
