"Hollywood" is a collective term nowadays.
And, essentially, describes the majority of the entertainment business.
But that majority is destroying a treasured art-form -- the art of performance.
"Hollywood" is idolized by the majority of the population, and many people dream of grasping it because it is seen as a way to make a fortune for doing nothing or to satisfy their own ego.
Stanislavski once said, "love the art in yourself, not yourself in the art!" The prevalence of people in the entertainment business who do not appreciate the art of performance is staggering.
And, often, it is the people who love this art form the most that are cast aside by the entertainment business.
The business side of entertainment should be in direct balance with the artistic side -- this is simply becoming less and less true every-day.
I would like to spread awareness of this issue. See if anybody cares anymore.
