I agree. I am a Momoa fan but could not support Amber Heard in Aquaman 2 or anything else. I wrote to the head of the studio to let them know why I and millions of other movie goers would not be going to see it.
God bless you, young man. It will be people like you who will change Hollywood, and ultimately, the world. Don't change your ethics; you are on the right path.
Oh, but they're "method" actors! What a bunch of hooey! I totally agree with what you said. It's messed up. Good for that actor for standing his ground
What's worse about this extreme method and Hoffmans slap in particular is that you're not supposed to interfere with another actors process. This behavior most definitely interferes with the other actors process.
Meryl's character was very controversial in that movie. If he was method acting, he was probably thinking she deserved it. Which is pretty crazy. It's play pretend.
Hollywood isn’t called Hollyweird for a reason. There are actors who are comfortable doing somethings in a scene or are not , some actors are comfortable with being in underwear but not nudity. There are standards and there are directors who just want to lord it over others. The same goes for actors that are just plain sick and they are the ones who are always getting the jobs.
We live in a world that has no clue anymore (if it ever did) of the concept of "the right thing to do." Thanks for having the courage to make this video. You're a smart, young guy and I appreciate your videos.
People who have money and power to do whatever they want, will always do that. I sometimes think that there are no good people anymore. The 'good' ones are just those who don't have the opportunity to do bad things.
That's part of why it's movies and shows are cathartic for people. They deal with real and messy and emotional life situations from a flawed, human perspective.
I like that about Neal McDonough. I remember Richard Dawson when he married late in life and his daughter asked him to stop kissing the contestants and he did!
Look I get where he's coming from with sex scenes and nudity. But he sounds pretty extreme, to the point of weird moral posturing. He's fine faux-brutally murdering someone but faux-kissing and being in bed (not doing it but just being in bed with another woman)?, that's too much for him? It's Hollywood. It's all fake. He has no problem emulating brutal violence but draws the line at (fake) kissing? 🙄 Actors
Oh yeah, I'd like to see Hoffman do that to Streisand in the "Flockers" movies. Actually, I'd like to see someone do that to Hoffman in a movie taking him by surprise!
Jared Leto is disgusting these days. What a mess. I don't like Dustin's method with Meryl S, though I don't like them. Seems celebs get away with so much. The temper tantrums are crazy. People on the street can be arrested for throwing a tantrum in public. Basically you can take part in disgusting and even criminal actions but it's the integrity that you can get fired for... Hollywood is over, in my opinion.
@@anieltavares7991 Because in most instances it's used as a shock factor to appeal to a broader audience without actually adding to the narrative as a whole
I stopped shopping at WalMart because of the way they're treating their employees. I boycotted Blake Lively for her behavior of treating domestic violence in her latest movie like a marketing ground to promote her brands with no regards of the sensitive subject matter.
Great video and totally agreed. To be honest it’s sad that it even needs to be mentioned what should be considered right and what should be considered wrong, sad. Anyways keep doing what you’re doing as an upcoming actress appreciate seeing some truth.
Yes he was. No addict keeps on attacking the same vein when he has a whole body to play with. And their pupils don't expand ffs they turn to pinholes. Loads of bollocks
I was a fan, and my husband was really bothered by me liking him (out of character) He passed away in 21.. now I know what he must have always known ! Jared is a creepy guy!
This has GOT to be one of your best and most profound videos. As another Asian actor and filmmaker, someone who watched your videos for tips and landed a some parts on TV, and I also bumped into your acting profile when I was updating my own, I can do relate to your goals and dreams. As a working actor and coach, what you are saying here takes great bravery. We all know Jared Leto is bonkers but this really shows how unprofessional and corrupt the world can be. It takes bravery because you are calling out A list actors (some like Jared who are starting to do more RUclips and social media skits, and could potentially be checking out RUclips every once in a while) while they are still in the limelight. Most people only call out bad behavior when the rest of the world already agrees. It means a lot to stand up for what you believe in AS you pave your way in the industry. Neal McDonough is a good looking dude that refuses to kiss anyone other than his wife. My wife and I have the same rule. I found it surprising that Neal is one of the 1% who refuses to do kissing scenes and respect his promise. Sometimes your agent will send you on an audition involving scenes with A list actors and you never know who you’re going to bump into. I’ve seen extremely bad behavior from well known actors on and off set. Everyone will laugh or agree with their bad behavior. It’s for the good of the acting community to realize just because you are an expert in your craft doesn’t make it ok to do these things without the permission of others. Slapping someone in a scene without them agreeing to it is called Assault. I imagine that interview was before MeToo, look how the audience just sort of laughs or makes light of it. I have seen so many beginner acting classes where an actor says “I’m going to go method!” and do so many irresponsible things. I worked for a decently known actor. He would brag about making his staff cry, annoying the staff of his friend another actor, and even bragged about choking a producer and getting an entire show canceled (backing withdrawn.) it was messed up and I remember he would physically threaten us (in a joking way) by slamming his fist on the table and smacking the equipment. He had no idea I wanted to be an actor and he told us so many messed up things he did to people. Your channel is incredible and I love that it gives hope and guidance to every generation of actor. Sorry for the longer message, but I am rooting for you to make it and I’m glad you made this. This is incredibly well done and well said. I hope more people see your video
The actor that didn’t want to kiss got a good role in Yellowstone. I don’t think Costner ever kissed the woman in s. 5 in Yellowstone - got kind of obvious that they avoid it.
It was Desperate House Wife's loss of a good solid actor. Always forget his name, the rare man that doesn't want to love or even kiss scenes. No reason not to write and direct smarter, and lose a solid and decent human being of an actor over it. He killed it,and made a great villain in Yellowstone.
I don't have Netflix Hulu etc, haven't been to the theatres in 15 yrs or more. Since 2020 with all the lunacy, I can't stomach most of them. Even though they were paid for, I've cleared 90% of my DVD collection. I loved movies, they've ruined it with all their perversions and their mental illness! Never again! What makes me most ill, they are living luxury and above real people who actually have a soul
I too will not go to see movies with actors I dislike! Amber Heard, he’ll no! I still haven’t seen aquaman 2 because of her, when I signed the petition I meant it.
What a fantastic video. I just watched an episode from Graham Norton with Hugh Grant. I'm from the UK. He is indeed known for being the stereotypical "stiff upper lip" Englishman. And yet he is liked because of past projects such as Notting Hill and other romantic movies. Hollywood is indeed very strange. I knew about the last two gentlemen who were blacklisted. I remember Neal McDonough in Desperate Housewives and as the villain Damien Darhk in the series Arrow. He was great! I also watched Kevin Sorbo as Hercules and in a more recent Christian movie. Also great. It's extremely honourable that they stood their ground but shame on Hollywood for blacklisting them. That method acting action was a disgusting thing to do. He even said it on a family platform. This is unacceptable. The Meryl Streep slap so strange. Very true. Actions speak louder than words. I watched that Amber Heard trial and was disgusted by her actions. She should be blacklisted. We need to open our eyes and be more aware. Thanks again for the video. It was really informative.
I hope he does a series on this crap, because there's plenty more to mine. As shocking as Meryl Streep getting full arm slapped by her male co-star, just cuz, he felt like getting into character. And pulling a far more aggressive/ passive aggressive stunt, is more like it, there's worse. I'm struggling to remember the director, but he's a huge name. Who directed, The Shining? He terrorized Shelly Duvall to get her into character. So much of her screaming and crying was actually real. She almost, or maybe did, have a type of break down from doing that movie and what that bastard put her through. Another one was what the mom in The Exorcist was put through, Ellen Burnstyn. She got seriously hurt, becuase the damn director wanted it to be real, so he let her get a serious back injury by not telling her what would really happen to her. One of the scenes where she gets slammed against the wall, she really got slammed and theyhurt her really badly. They also put the man who played the priest through it too. Shooting guns right beside his head to get "the right"' reaction. Crazy stuff.
Hollywood has done horrible things from Silent Film to this day. Name ONE job that hasn’t. This isn’t just a Hollywood issue, it’s a HUMAN CONDITION. It’s an EVERYDAY EVERYONE EVERYWHERE ISSUE!!! The focus on Hollywood, Music Industry, Political Figures, etc… is a reflection of what happens every single day in every single Job, Neighborhood, School, Community, EVERYWHERE!! Hollywood is a reflection of our society, values and culture. Go watch the movies that reflect your own values. Don’t watch the ones you know are full of bad actors ( pun intended) SEEK OUT the Movies and Actors who adhere to a higher standard. The tide of things are turning and it’s up to us to make it happen.🙏💫
If you have problems with what the role calls for, if you don’t like it or aren’t comfortable with it don’t take the role. If you don’t like the subject of a film don’t see it. There is plenty of cinema out there to enjoy. Denying the way the world is isn’t going to make any change. The sound of freedom for example is uncomfortable to watch but it shines a light on a real problem that many people don’t know about.
I find Method actors to be rather selfish performers and I’d rather not deal with them as a director. When I was teaching, I invented what I called the “Nike School of Acting - Just Do It!” where you don’t waste time overthinking about how to react and just react the way you would if it was happening to you. Humans tend to react the same way to similar circumstances, so you don’t have to delve so deep into a character that you end up doing crazy things like Leto says he did. I’ve heard horror stories about Method actors who couldn’t break out of a character after the play was over, and obviously Heath Ledger let the Joker take over, so I’ve never recommended Method beyond using some aspects for building character.
That used condom thing should have made him fire from the project but it did opposite for him, got great pr. Imagine if a female would do something like this. It’s not only gross but it’s also hygiene and std risk issues that he exposed to many people. But he is still getting jobs and that shows Hollywood mentality.
I don’t know where this “we” is coming from. The more I learn of Hollywood the more disgusted I am. Children who are put into the entertainment industry are invariably destroyed by it.
Another issue is that alot of these wrongdoings go unoticed for a really long time. The general public doesnt know until it becomes a major headline or someone talks about it and it goes viral, for me, this is the first time i heard about Jared Leto doing that and Meryl getting slapped. But yes I agree that after we see/hear that wrong behavior has been happening for a long time we should boycott. Some people are against cancel culture but I honestly believe in some cases its necessary.
I think Alex Winter could probably give you a view to the darker side of Hollywood, and those victims of casting-couches since cameras started rolling. But, yeah, Hugh Grant and Christian Bale need to be outed above all of that for grumpy moods.
Hollywood’s philosophy: “we love this fun, goofy stats who do crazy things! So mysterious!” *enter Christians* “OHMYGOSH, WEIRDO JESUS FREAKS! Get out of here!”
Hollywood. Hollywood. Hollywood. Click my heels, 3 times…. Nope, I’m still sitting in the same spot. They make it look so flipping phenomenal. Who wouldn’t want $250 million and you’re recognized and glorified for being somebody else? It seems glorious. But, I don’t think it is. It takes HUGE spiritual and emotional balance to be in that environment and stay humble. Additionally, with the abuse coming out, it seems a dark force has its fangs in people.
14:08 if you pay for a streaming service and tbey run an Amber Heard movie YOU DON'T WATCH, SHE STIILL GETS A CUT OF YOUR MONEY. You would have to Boycott the streaming service entirely, not just "not watch her movie"? Lol Just sayin'
So, what should we do in Ryan and Blake Lively situation then? Ryan wasn't responsible for the mess Blake caused, but he supported his wife, Blake... Should we really support Ryan then?
First time here. Evidently you can't have morals or values in Hollywood otherwise you're blacklisted. I agree with you on the example of Amber Heard. Set boundaries not just by words but with action as well. LIKED, COMMENTED & SUBSCRIBED
In defense of Christian Bale, he actually risked his life in a scene when someone ruined entire take. He didn't use stand-in actor. I would be mad myself I reckon.
I have kidney failure, and I mail in blood samples once a month and there are major rules to follow for that. Mailing people a used condom is mailing a biohazard. It’s bad enough if the adult cast member would stick their hand in a box and touch that but what if their child said please mommy let me open that box?
Gives me hope for the future that you and likeminded young people exist. I never understood the concept of method acting and morphing into a character and behaving rudely and hurting others during filming and in one’s personal lives. As an actor, they should be able to act and not carry their characters into their lives. Of course certain days with heavy stories could affect a person but that condom thing was disgusting 🤢. Then again, I don’t find him that talented.
That was very well done. As you may well observe, Hollywood has been conditioning us to call good 'evil' and evil 'good' for decades...The Joker on the Batman 1960s TV series did not method act, yet he runs rings around Leto and Ledger.
According to how the thumbnail is presented: Unless you abuse your belief to harass and judge others... How is believing in God a bad thing? Thank you for making rhis video!
It’s not a bad thing it’s because the higher ups in Hollywood don’t like Jesus/God and even go out of their way to mock Him in a lot of their movies/ use His name in vain a lot.
Honestly these days in Hollywood it seems like the further you are away from God in the industry, the more the Devil rewards you with fame, money, and power. At the end of the day, what is all the fame and money worth, if it means losing your soul. Thanks for this video! I was actually talking about the dark side of Hollywood with my sister just today.
I'm a stand-up comedian who does situational and political comedy at open mic nights. All the sexual abuse stories that I hear about that happened in Hollywood scare me and I would never do any movie that requires nudity. Let's say for the sake of argument, if a movie did require that, I'd want to be able to wear a strapless shirt and be underneath covers for the illusion of a nude scene. I don't see why nudity should be a necessity in acting in movies.
Why there exist Nudity as a Thing..... Take #1 : There are Many...many... Many Artist who consider Nudity as Beauty. Art. A Liberation form Victorian Bondage.... And They just want to Include that beauty to their Canvas/Screen ..... Take 2 : Many....many....many People like to see Nudity and sex scene 😂😂😂😂😂 especially if the Movie is Adult Rated/R Rated 🤧 And Studio wants to Sell the movie or series to them. And that's why Game of Thrones has Laaaaat of Sex and Nudity in fist episodes and seasons, while Almost none in last 😂😂😂
Depends on the context. If it's Schindler's List which depicts humanity at it's most vulnerable instead of gratuitous, that's understandable. However, most nudity is gratuitous and just for shock and Eros value. Cheap and unnecessary. Writers need to write smarter.

Kevin Sorbo is a poor choice to use if you saw his Twitter feed and his attack on women, LGBT he isn't just religious he weaponizes it
Dorothy on Wizard of Oz got slapped because she had "the giggles.".... 😢 She was literally a teenage girl.
...and Johnny Depp's behavior is appropriate?
You're not "diving" into the dark side of Hollywood here, you're wading in the kiddie pool.
There is no dark side. ..it's all a black hole
Exactly
Darkside OF Hollywood?! Hollywood IS the darkside! No one is innocent! The entire entertainment industry needs to be shut down immediately!
Jared Leto is a red flag. His behaviour is sick, ego driven and entitled
He seems very narcissistic.
He really disappointed me, oh well,,, Hollywood is ✔️ done.
Jared IS a Cult.
He is his own biggest fan. A wierdo cult leader.
Much respect for Neal McDonough.
He played a bad guy, but he is really a good guy !!
One of my fav actors
Looking at Leto and Bale, it's crazy to me that Gina Carano and Melissa Barrera were fired for political social media posts.
I agree. I am a Momoa fan but could not support Amber Heard in Aquaman 2 or anything else. I wrote to the head of the studio to let them know why I and millions of other movie goers would not be going to see it.
God bless you, young man. It will be people like you who will change Hollywood, and ultimately, the world. Don't change your ethics; you are on the right path.
Thank you for making sense. Many things about Hollywood dont make sense.
Oh, but they're "method" actors! What a bunch of hooey! I totally agree with what you said. It's messed up. Good for that actor for standing his ground
What's worse about this extreme method and Hoffmans slap in particular is that you're not supposed to interfere with another actors process. This behavior most definitely interferes with the other actors process.

Celebrity/Hollywood worship is horrible. Never forget it's an industry that is built by humans, not gods.
That’s not entirely true…
That's part of why it's movies and shows are cathartic for people. They deal with real and messy and emotional life situations from a flawed, human perspective.
Thank you for making this video. Hopefully this means a new generation will clean the dark side of Hollywood.
This is so light compared to what they are going to uncover! Especially since there are underground tunnels full of bizzare things that are going on!.
This reminds me of the Andy Dick situation. Nobody did anything until it was too late and he got away with so much because "he is a celebrity".
I like that about Neal McDonough. I remember Richard Dawson when he married late in life and his daughter asked him to stop kissing the contestants and he did!
Look I get where he's coming from with sex scenes and nudity. But he sounds pretty extreme, to the point of weird moral posturing.

He has no problem emulating brutal violence but draws the line at (fake) kissing? 🙄 Actors
Thank you. He is picking and choosing his morals. This is why people hate overtly religious people.
I agree yelling, bullying, assaulting others is not acceptable in any situation or profession.
Oh yeah, I'd like to see Hoffman do that to Streisand in the "Flockers" movies. Actually, I'd like to see someone do that to Hoffman in a movie taking him by surprise!
Opening Jared Leto, there's already a problem because he literally took people in the desert and became a cult leader
The sad part I had a crush on him when he was on my favorite tv. show "My-So-Called Life" back in the day.
You're awesome, dude
People just accept anything as the norm and pretend to get along with stuff that are obviously abnormal
distorted moral values are not only in acting but in the world. I absolutely agree with the statements!👏👏👏👏
And that’s when Letos career went down hill.
Jared Leto is disgusting these days. What a mess.
I don't like Dustin's method with Meryl S, though I don't like them. Seems celebs get away with so much.
The temper tantrums are crazy. People on the street can be arrested for throwing a tantrum in public.
Basically you can take part in disgusting and even criminal actions but it's the integrity that you can get fired for...
Hollywood is over, in my opinion.
I’m a new actress and I already know that I would never do nudity in a film. It’s not necessary.
I'm a new filmmaker and I 100% agree with you nudity doesn't have a place in films (with a few rare exceptions for non-sexual scenarios)
Why ?

Get out while you still can, my friend.
Really great video, I absolutely love your content and it’s about time someone add a video like this!
I stopped shopping at WalMart because of the way they're treating their employees.
I boycotted Blake Lively for her behavior of treating domestic violence in her latest movie like a marketing ground to promote her brands with no regards of the sensitive subject matter.
That can be a tough one. A boycott usually forces regular people to lose their jobs...not the higher ups that actually created the policy or scandal.
And I’m upvoting your answer because you understand how ‘their’ and ‘they’re’ work. Shal for the win!
Cancel culture is ridiculous
This is really inspiring keep doing what you’re doing.
New subscriber because of your thoughtful insight and opinions stated in this video. You earned it…!
Thank you for talking about this. I will share.
Thanks for covering this, especially now videos like this are absolutely needed. The things hollyweird are trying to make normal is not okay at all...
Great video and totally agreed. To be honest it’s sad that it even needs to be mentioned what should be considered right and what should be considered wrong, sad. Anyways keep doing what you’re doing as an upcoming actress appreciate seeing some truth.
Young Man....this video is excellent..
Great job 👍... Thanks 👍👍
I had a raised eyebrow on Leto since Requiem Of A Dream. I felt that guy was not " acting".
Yes he was. No addict keeps on attacking the same vein when he has a whole body to play with. And their pupils don't expand ffs they turn to pinholes. Loads of bollocks
@@amirahkukan782Not the drug abuse emulation. Of course the drug use is acting (on screen @ least) His ways all around as a sleaze.

I too will not go to see movies with actors I dislike! Amber Heard, he’ll no! I still haven’t seen aquaman 2 because of her, when I signed the petition I meant it.
I feel the same if 👁 dont support them in my mind and heart then I'm not supporting them in 3D...period.

When I was teaching, I invented what I called the “Nike School of Acting - Just Do It!” where you don’t waste time overthinking about how to react and just react the way you would if it was happening to you. Humans tend to react the same way to similar circumstances, so you don’t have to delve so deep into a character that you end up doing crazy things like Leto says he did. I’ve heard horror stories about Method actors who couldn’t break out of a character after the play was over, and obviously Heath Ledger let the Joker take over, so I’ve never recommended Method beyond using some aspects for building character.
Great perspective 👍🏻
That used condom thing should have made him fire from the project but it did opposite for him, got great pr. Imagine if a female would do something like this. It’s not only gross but it’s also hygiene and std risk issues that he exposed to many people. But he is still getting jobs and that shows Hollywood mentality.
Love your content, dude...
Very thoughtful viewpoint, especially since Hollywood has a very manipulative negative side
I don’t know where this “we” is coming from. The more I learn of Hollywood the more disgusted I am. Children who are put into the entertainment industry are invariably destroyed by it.
Another issue is that alot of these wrongdoings go unoticed for a really long time. The general public doesnt know until it becomes a major headline or someone talks about it and it goes viral, for me, this is the first time i heard about Jared Leto doing that and Meryl getting slapped. But yes I agree that after we see/hear that wrong behavior has been happening for a long time we should boycott. Some people are against cancel culture but I honestly believe in some cases its necessary.
I think Alex Winter could probably give you a view to the darker side of Hollywood, and those victims of casting-couches since cameras started rolling. But, yeah, Hugh Grant and Christian Bale need to be outed above all of that for grumpy moods.
Method acting is just a rationalization for psychosis
First time seeing this channel. This was a great video.
“This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard”. Well said
I keep thinking that one day Leto is gonna send something to the wrong person or be sent the wrong thing to him.
l find you very interesting , lm glad you put this out… So True!!
15:30 you're such a saint to judge others
Hollywood’s philosophy: “we love this fun, goofy stats who do crazy things! So mysterious!”
*enter Christians*
“OHMYGOSH, WEIRDO JESUS FREAKS! Get out of here!”
Hollywood. Hollywood. Hollywood. Click my heels, 3 times…. Nope, I’m still sitting in the same spot. They make it look so flipping phenomenal. Who wouldn’t want $250 million and you’re recognized and glorified for being somebody else? It seems glorious. But, I don’t think it is. It takes HUGE spiritual and emotional balance to be in that environment and stay humble. Additionally, with the abuse coming out, it seems a dark force has its fangs in people.
Nobody talks about it? Nobody will stop talking about it!
14:08 if you pay for a streaming service and tbey run an Amber Heard movie YOU DON'T WATCH, SHE STIILL GETS A CUT OF YOUR MONEY. You would have to Boycott the streaming service entirely, not just "not watch her movie"? Lol Just sayin'
I am so glad you posted this topic. Excellent!!! I've always felt the same way about kissing. For me. Same
Very good video!!!!
So, what should we do in Ryan and Blake Lively situation then? Ryan wasn't responsible for the mess Blake caused, but he supported his wife, Blake...
Should we really support Ryan then?
Correct. Stop supporting it.
First time here. Evidently you can't have morals or values in Hollywood otherwise you're blacklisted. I agree with you on the example of Amber Heard. Set boundaries not just by words but with action as well. LIKED, COMMENTED & SUBSCRIBED
In defense of Christian Bale, he actually risked his life in a scene when someone ruined entire take. He didn't use stand-in actor. I would be mad myself I reckon.
So.....that makes it ok
I have kidney failure, and I mail in blood samples once a month and there are major rules to follow for that. Mailing people a used condom is mailing a biohazard. It’s bad enough if the adult cast member would stick their hand in a box and touch that but what if their child said please mommy let me open that box?
Gives me hope for the future that you and likeminded young people exist. I never understood the concept of method acting and morphing into a character and behaving rudely and hurting others during filming and in one’s personal lives. As an actor, they should be able to act and not carry their characters into their lives. Of course certain days with heavy stories could affect a person but that condom thing was disgusting 🤢. Then again, I don’t find him that talented.
That was very well done. As you may well observe, Hollywood has been conditioning us to call good 'evil' and evil 'good' for decades...The Joker on the Batman 1960s TV series did not method act, yet he runs rings around Leto and Ledger.
Wow! Great analysis.
Give the real truth, Hellyweird is all club Lucy.
Looking through several of your videos. Not an actor, but I like how you think.
Chris Pratt was attacked just for being Christian
I completely agree with you 👍 Thanks 👍
U r right on the money. I appreciate ur posts.
People aren’t putting up with it anymore. I mean I’m not.
He won't kiss her but will agree to kill her chatacter. Ridiculous. You can t pick and choose your morality.
If you google Holly-wood, the actual wood and what its used for, you'll be surprised 😮
On Tonight's Episode of HollyWHACKED...
Tbh, is there any other side of Hollywood?
Good commentary.
According to how the thumbnail is presented: Unless you abuse your belief to harass and judge others... How is believing in God a bad thing? Thank you for making rhis video!
It’s not a bad thing it’s because the higher ups in Hollywood don’t like Jesus/God and even go out of their way to mock Him in a lot of their movies/ use His name in vain a lot.
You did good
There is no dark side of Hollywood,matter of fact it’s all dark.
Yeah... and its so unfair; the way religious people are treated...
Honestly these days in Hollywood it seems like the further you are away from God in the industry, the more the Devil rewards you with fame, money, and power. At the end of the day, what is all the fame and money worth, if it means losing your soul. Thanks for this video! I was actually talking about the dark side of Hollywood with my sister just today.
I'm a stand-up comedian who does situational and political comedy at open mic nights. All the sexual abuse stories that I hear about that happened in Hollywood scare me and I would never do any movie that requires nudity. Let's say for the sake of argument, if a movie did require that, I'd want to be able to wear a strapless shirt and be underneath covers for the illusion of a nude scene. I don't see why nudity should be a necessity in acting in movies.
Why there exist Nudity as a Thing.....
Take #1 : There are Many...many... Many Artist who consider Nudity as Beauty. Art. A Liberation form Victorian Bondage.... And They just want to Include that beauty to their Canvas/Screen .....
Take 2 : Many....many....many People like to see Nudity and sex scene 😂😂😂😂😂 especially if the Movie is Adult Rated/R Rated 🤧 And Studio wants to Sell the movie or series to them. And that's why Game of Thrones has Laaaaat of Sex and Nudity in fist episodes and seasons, while Almost none in last 😂😂😂
Depends on the context. If it's Schindler's List which depicts humanity at it's most vulnerable instead of gratuitous, that's understandable.
However, most nudity is gratuitous and just for shock and Eros value. Cheap and unnecessary. Writers need to write smarter.
