FAQ
What dark secrets are there in Hollywood?
Hollywood is full of secret societies. There are secret societies that are more cult-like than others. They have members who follow specific rules and rituals. While some are clubs for those with similar interests, others are not.
There are also other, more evil organizations that control large parts 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.
Numerous unions/guilds also represent actors and directors as well as writers, producers, and so forth. Many of the major TV networks and movie studios are owned or controlled by large corporations.
It is obvious that, no matter how secretive or obtuse a group appears, someone knows exactly what they do. But that doesn't mean we should fear them.
Instead, we should embrace them. Because they help us make better choices.
These experts tell us which movies are most likely to succeed, which songs will be in demand, and what books will sell the best.
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.
And because we've chosen to ignore them, they become even more powerful. They become the ultimate arbiters of taste.
And if you don't like what they say, you're free to ignore them.
Let's now take a look into some lesser-known but very real Hollywood secret societies.
And you'll understand why they're so crucial.
What is the most interesting fact about the human body?
There are two eyes, two ears. Two nostrils. Four limbs. A mouth, nose and penis. We have over 50 parts of our bodies. However, one thing is missing. A heart.
The heart is a pump that circulates blood throughout your body. The blood moves through the veins. It transports oxygen and nutrients to your cells. It also removes carbon dioxide.
Each minute, the heart pumps approximately 5 liters. This is equivalent to a person drinking 2-3 cups coffee daily.
The heart is constantly pumping blood, 24 hours a week, 365 day a year. While you are sleeping, your heart beats about 100 times per second.
Because of the color and texture of their skin, you can tell if someone is healthy or sick. Looking closely at the skin's surface, you can see tiny blood vessels called capillaries. These vessels carry blood away to the heart via the large blood vessels. When blood flow is blocked, the skin turns blue or purple.
People suffering from sickle cell disease have no red blood cells. Patients with sickle cell disease have their blood become sticky and harden, leading to severe illness.
You can use a bandage to stop bleeding if your cut is severe. Blood must flow in order for the wound to heal properly. To do this, doctors will insert a needle through your skin into the vein adjacent to the injury. This allows blood to drain from the area.
The doctor may also insert catheters (catheters), into the artery at the site of the blood clot. This keeps the patient occupied until the clot is broken down naturally.
Is there a Hollywood blacklist of actors?
There is a Hollywood blacklist.
However, the list isn’t public. The names are not known to us. This is why it matters.
The reason for the secrecy is that the blacklisted actors and directors wouldn't be able to find jobs. This would result in studios losing money as the actors and directors would have to go out on their own. Which means they'd cut back on spending money on movies. This would result in fewer opportunities available for blacklisted filmmakers. This would make them bankrupt.
This could eventually lead to more victims.
In short, when someone tries to make an oscar winning movie, they might be asked to sign a contract saying they won't speak publicly against their employers. 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 threaten to abandon projects that don’t conform to their vision.
This is why Hollywood has a blacklist. If you make negative comments about your employer, it's likely that you will be unemployed. This is bad news for anyone.
Problem is, many people have been falsely charged. They've had the toil to clear their name.
We must stop this from happening again. It is essential that everyone has the freedom to express their opinions.
We must get rid of the Hollywood blacklist.
Why do actors get blacklisted?
As an actor, rejection is much more common than for writers. You will likely be rejected many times if you are an actor. But it doesn't matter because eventually, you'll find someone who loves you.
Actors are often very talented and can make a living anywhere. Actors aren't always interested in making a living. Actors love acting, and love telling stories. If you are an actor, you will most likely put yourself out there.
Sometimes, auditions are cancelled because you are either too young or too old for the job. Sometimes, you may lose an audition for a movie. It happens all the time.
However, once you have been cast, it is possible to face criticism. You may be told that your makeup is too heavy or you are not worthy of wearing it. If you're lucky, you won't even hear negative comments.
Sometimes your character isn't real or authentic and you will be criticised. Perhaps you play a homosexual man and everyone thinks that you're straight. Maybe you are a woman who is tough but cries often.
Or maybe you're asked to change your voice. Sometimes, they want you to sound more like a man or a woman. They usually want you sound better.
Negative criticisms are best ignored. Actors feel like they've failed when told they did wrong. The truth is they haven’t done anything wrong.
They weren't born with the talents that made them famous. And sometimes, no matter how hard they try, they don't fit the bill.
Blacklisting an actor could be for many reasons. Some people don't like actors. Others feel that actors are lazy. Some actors may be cheaters.
No matter the reason, it is important to remember that you will not be blacklisted if there are other jobs available. There are many jobs out there and you'll be able to find them.
If you persevere, you will eventually succeed.
