Two of the most revealing statements I have read about the big movie-making industry are:
. 1.) "There is less here than meets the eye."
. and
. 2.) "The entire mass-marketing mania known in the secular world as 'christmastime' was caused by a handful of eastern European Jews who produced movies with that theme."

The capital investment, working capital requirement and expenses of that industry were incomprehensible and incredible to everybody outside the industry. Merely learning how a professional-quality 35 mm motion camera worked gave me the idea clearly. Learning how a technicolor camera worked was awesome for me. Knowing that makes it understandable that the producers and studio owners were so crassly obsessed with earnings. Not pretty.
Both facts…follow the money. Cuz Hollywood “history” more myth than fact. I’m fine with creative storytelling, but the creative accounting is making many creators realize…it’s easier and more realistic to do it without the gatekeepers and studio heads.
