FAQ
Why do actors get blacklisted?
As an actor, rejection is much more common than for writers. If you're an actor, you'll probably get rejected a lot. However, it doesn't really matter as you will eventually meet someone who is truly your love.
Actors are typically very talented and can earn a living virtually anywhere. Actors don't really care about making money. Actors love acting, and love telling stories. It's likely that you will be acting if your passion is acting.
It is possible to be told that you are not suitable for the role, or that you are too old or too young. You might also lose your audition for a film role. It happens all the times.
However, once you have been cast, it is possible to face criticism. People may tell you that your makeup looks terrible and you shouldn't use it. If you're lucky, you won't even hear negative comments.
Sometimes you'll be criticized because you're playing a character that isn't realistic or authentic. You might play a gay man and everyone assumes that you are straight. You could also play a woman with a tendency to cry a lot, even though she's supposed to be tough.
Sometimes, they ask you to change your voice. Sometimes, they want you to sound more like a man or a woman. Most times, though, they want you to sound better.
Negative criticisms are best ignored. Actors often feel that they've failed if they are told they did something wrong. They haven't done any wrong.
They just weren't born with the talent that made them famous. They don't always fit the bill, no matter how hard they try.
Blacklisting can happen for many reasons. Some people don't like actors. Some people think actors are lazy. Still, others say that actors are cheaters.
No matter what the reason, you won't be blacklisted if your persistence persists. There are plenty of jobs available and you'll find them.
You'll succeed as long as you keep trying.
Which is the most secretive city in the world?
This question might surprise you. It might even make you uncomfortable because it challenges our perception of reality and how we live. There is a reason this place exists and it's not as you might expect.
It was called the City of God by ancient Greeks. In the Bible, it was known as the City of Destruction.
In India, it's called Kashi (Kashmir). It is also called Novgorod in Russia.
Here in America, however, it is called The Village That Disappeared.
One small New York State town with just 1,200 people vanished. With the exception of a road marker pointing to its former site, there were no remains: cars, bodies, houses.
The little village vanished, with no trace of its existence. Some claim the earth swallowed it. Others claim that a meteorite hit destroyed it. Some believe that it was taken by aliens.
Regardless of what happened, residents of this once-thriving town are certain that their town won't be forgotten forever. They had just moved to a new town.
There is even a website dedicated to tracking the disappearance of the lost city of Zugspitz.
You might be wondering where this town went. It's in Switzerland.
Zugspitze lies on the border between Austria and Germany. A huge lake, Lake Zugspitze, is located just beyond the summit.
It has always fascinated and astonished me to see how many towns have vanished but still exist. Why do some disappear while others survive? I decided that I would investigate.
I was interested in learning more about these mysterious towns that are disappearing. What causes a community to disappear? How can one place become extinct?
It turns out that there are several theories about the phenomenon of vanishing towns. One theory states that a town vanishes when all its buildings are destroyed. Another theory holds that the town simply relocates to another location. The third theory is that the town was never actually there.
Theories aside, the fact remains that dozens of towns around the globe have been swallowed up by the ground. This video examines the past and present status of these areas.

Is there a Hollywood blacklist.
There is an Hollywood blacklist.
The list isn’t available for public viewing. As far as we know, the names aren't even known. Here's why this matters.
The reason for the secrecy is that the blacklisted actors and directors wouldn't be able to find jobs. The studios would be out of business as they lose money. It would mean they would reduce their expenditure on movies. The blacklisted filmmakers would have fewer chances. This could lead to them going bankrupt.
Which could ultimately result in more victims.
If someone attempts to make an Oscar-winning movie, they may be asked to sign a contract stating that they will not speak out against their employers. This applies to any producer or director who wishes to be nominated.
This is why you'll hear about directors being pressured by producers to take scenes out of their films. Directors threaten to abandon projects that don’t conform to their vision.
This is why Hollywood has created a blacklist. You'll likely become unemployed if you say bad things about your employer. That's bad for everyone.
It is not uncommon for people to be falsely accused. They have had to fight for their freedom.
We need to stop this kind of thing before it starts happening again. We need to ensure everyone has the right of expression.
We must get rid of the Hollywood blacklist.
