It is getting harder and harder for me to tell the difference (if any)
between a (Hollywood) Cliché and/or a stereotype.
Has Hollywood finally run out of original ideas ?

Hollywood has never had many original ideas. It did have a few
original directors, and they fought like hell to get their visions
made into films, but they were opposed at every turn by the studio
heads. Orsen Wells was probably the most original and creative
person in Hollywood. He ended up doing wine commercials on
television and being the voice of Orson on "Mork and Mindy." >> Stay informed about: Cliche's & Sterotypes ! ? ! |

instead of the finest vintages from Bordeaux. >> Stay informed about: Cliche's & Sterotypes ! ? ! |

I don't know that Hollywood ever had an original idea. Almost all
the scripts were based on books, stories or plays, or were written
by established playwrights and novelists. Absolutely original
movies are rare. >> Stay informed about: Cliche's & Sterotypes ! ? ! |

I've written a book that I feel has a message with a Norma Rae feel to it,
but I don't know who to send it to as far as adaptaion goes...nope, it's not
published, just sitting here in my computer...with five more.
Cheers!
