FROM MAILROOM TO TOP OF HOLLYWOOD with Mike Ovitz | The James Altucher Show

Michael Ovitz is the creator of the biggest talent agency in Hollywood. Then he went on to become the #2 guy at Disney. And he’s had so many reinventions in his life since then. None of my favorite movies would exist without him.🔥jamesaltucher.com/2018/09/mic...
Now, he’s written a best selling book, “Who Is Michael Ovitz” where he describes what it’s like to find talent, work with creative geniuses, dominate an industry and more.

Enjoyed this interview. These 45 minute interviews with Mike Ovitz are very rare. Glad to see Ovitz giving these longer interviews. Bought his book “Who is Mike Ovitz?” the hard copy and audio format. Priceless.

This was a great interview. Ovitz was really surprised you had read the book at the end. Great interview. Thanks

I just feel you have so much great content and it needs to be heard that's all

A study done by entertainment-securities attorney, John W. Cones, finds that 70 - 80 percent of the top three executives in the MPAA studio/distributors are "politically liberal, not very religious Jewish males of European heritage." Given this, why is there such little diversity in the executive ranks when many are calling for more diversity in Hollywood? Could discrimination (cronyism, nepotism and favoritism) in the executive suites be the cause of the lack of diversity at the talent, crew and conglomerate levels? Does a narrowly defined "control group" of executives only green-light movies that appeal to their interests, values, cultural perspectives and prejudices? Is this why Hollywood studios and New York networks are promoting a liberal agenda and suppressing conservatives? Is this why Hollywood is promoting European style- socialism and anti-Christian values? Is this why Hollywood is promoting the Globalist Agenda Trump is working to roll back? MAINSTREAM -- a 4-part mini series NOT "coming to a theater near you" addresses the lack of diversity in Hollywood and its repercussions on a democratic society.
