Is Hollywood Anti Authority?

In Hollywood, there is a prevailing narrative that associates wealth with villainy, often portraying wealthy characters, especially CEOs, as antagonists rather than heroes. This perspective positions the 'good guy' as a less intelligent, working-class individual, contrasting them with the cunning, well-educated villains. Despite the creators of such content being ostensibly pro-authority, there is a noticeable dissonance as modern audiences perceive a lack of genuine anti-authority sentiments in contemporary films. Past eras may have embraced a more rebellious stance towards government, but today's narratives reflect a shift, with protagonists frequently depicted as 'conspiracy theorists' amidst actual conspiracies woven into the plots, particularly in franchises like James Bond. This complicity between narrative and authority raises questions about the authenticity of Hollywood's anti-establishment claims.
