FAQ

Is there an Hollywood blacklist?
There is an Hollywood blacklist.
But, the list has not been made public. We don't know the names. It matters because of this.
The reason behind the secrecy was that blacklisted directors and actors wouldn't be able find work. This would result in studios losing money as the actors and directors would have to go out on their own. They would also cut back on their spending on movies. This would lead to fewer opportunities and less money for blacklisted directors. This could lead to them going bankrupt.
This could result in even more victims.
A contract may be required to agree to not speak against employers if someone attempts to make an Oscar winning movie. Producers and directors who want to be nominated are subject to the same restrictions.
It's no surprise that directors are often forced to take out scenes in their films by producers. Directors might threaten to leave projects that don't reflect their vision.
This is why Hollywood has created a blacklist. If you are negative about your employer, you'll most likely go unemployed. It's not good for anyone.
Problem is, many people have been falsely charged. They've had the toil to clear their name.
This is unacceptable behavior and must be stopped. It is essential that everyone has the freedom to express their opinions.
We need to get rid of Hollywood's blacklist.
What are the darkest secrets of Hollywood?
Hollywood is full of secret societies. There are many secret societies in Hollywood. Some are cult-like, where members adhere to strict rules and rituals. Others are clubs for people who share similar interests.
But there are also more nefarious organizations that control much of the industry. These include companies like the MPAA ("Motion Picture Association of America"), which determines film ratings. The RIAA ("Recording Industry Association of America") sets music licensing fees.
Many unions and guilds represent actors, directors writers, producers, and others. Most major movie studios and television networks are owned by large corporations which own these various organizations.
It doesn't matter how secretive a group might seem, someone somewhere knows what they are doing. They shouldn't be fearful, however.
Instead, we should embrace them. Because they give us information that allows us to make better decisions.
They can tell us which movies and songs are likely to be successful, as well as what books and novels will be most popular.
These help us to decide what we'll watch, read, listen, and buy.
We can trust our advisors and ignore advice that isn't in accord with our tastes.
They are more powerful than ever because we chose to ignore them. They are the ultimate arbiters and judges of taste.
You can ignore them if they don't agree with you.
Let's now look at some lesser-known, but still very real Hollywood secret organizations.
And you'll understand why they're so crucial.
