The sorry state of streaming residuals shows why SAG and the WGA are striking.

    You need to watch the film Cradle Will Rock if that’s what you think.

    You should watch it anyway because it’s a great movie, but it’s also based on a true story about people getting government funding and using it to put on a socialist musical, which made the government freak out and shut the show down. That is what would stifle art- not artists being loyal, artists not being allowed to dissent.

      Such a great movie. So many things to think about after watching.

      Sadly whenever I tried to get people to see it, they took the government side. Spending my High School years in Utah was horribly stifling.
