Why are the presidents of the film industry always close to power when they are appointed? Why do we meet few workers but many marginalized people in the films? Why does My Fair Lady or Pretty Woman end well? These are all questions answered in this book, which reveals the tight network established between Hollywood, the creative pole, New York, the stronghold of high finance, and Washington, the capital of political power. Modern Hollywood cinema remains the ideal vector of the American dream: under the guise of entertainment, the image makes its ideological dimension transparent and contributes to transforming these propositions into a vision of the world, often more convincing than reality.
