Jack Strange on Hollywood: Hollywood affects our sense of reality so strongly. It's like a mirror feeding back to us a reflection of ourselves. But it's a very superficial reflection. It's like a closed feedback loop constantly reaffirming and conditioning us with what we believe to be the ideas we want. There is no space to question, think or feel things. Generally, it's just like advertising.
