so much crap is topsy turvy when it comes to show business ( i love saying "show business', not 'entertainment' as most say now. when i say 'show business' i feel like some prick old vaudeville star with a cigar, bigotry, a bad suit, hair grease and a membership with the Friars). anyway, examples:
- it's actually the upper class big earners that live in trailers
- the families that are most ambitious in the business push their kids into child labor
- often the younger you are (esp chicks), the better your earning potential.
- many women who off camera look like boys (which is hot--just kidding), go on camera and look like 'the most beautiful women in the world"
- some of the best acting isn't even acting: one of the greatest moments in film is the end of City Lights, called by Brando and others as some of the best acting. Chaplin himself said he wasn't even acting, he was just living the moment with his co star.
- L.A is considered a city of glitz, glamour, stars etc, yet most of what they churn out in film, tv, food, culture etc is actually targeted to middle america, like a factory to produce for their tastes or lack of. (NYC by contrast is more of international tastes and culture).
and we all look up to it all eh?
