Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a rigorous critique of Hollywood's treatment of American society, and of its own supposed social and moral superiority. Upton Sinclair, the author, deploys dialectical materialism to attack the industry's capitalist tendencies and its disconnect from real America. Key topi…cs include the Great Depression, Hollywood's self-censorship, and its role in promoting glamorous but unrealistic ideals. Sinclair exposes how the entertainment industry's preoccupation with feeding audiences stories of beautiful people living lavish lives has resulted in movies that create unrealistic expectations and a false sense of morality. The author argues that the industry needs to re-examine its social responsibility to accurately depict the complexities of the real world. In this way, Hollywood could act as an agent for positive societal change. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
