I was having a discussion about Hollywood with my mom a few days ago and we were debating about if Hollywood is more "corrupt" now or say back in the 50's or 60's.
My mom thinks that the actors and actresses on shows like Leave it to Beaver went home and acted the same way, or that Tom Selleck still wears his Detroit Tigers hat and drives a Ferrari around his avocado farm. My mom does not like to think that actors from back then did drugs or were alcoholics (yes I know the Magnum P.I reference was much later than the 60's but it was just to make a point).
I am not sure if Hollywood was more "corrupt" back than or today, it just seems like today more people hear about the bad behavior of actors or actresses because they get more attention and I think a lot of times that's exactly why they do it be it drugs/alcohol/or just general stupidity. I was just wondering it anyone on here had any thoughts on this.
I used the word "corrupt" because I just couldn't think of a better one.
