The Day Of The Locust (1992x18)

Air date: Aug 30, 1992

For an industry as self-congratulatory as Hollywood, you would expect there to be a plethora of movies showing the film business in a glowing light. Strangely enough, this doesn’t seem to be the case. Of all the movies made about the film industry, the only one I can think of that treats the business well is Day for Night, in which the romantically-inclined French director François Truffaut did his best to convince us that making a film is a process full of sweetness and light.
