Hollywood

Hollywood (styled HOLLYWOOD) is an American historic-drama series created by Ryan Murphy, Ian Brennan, and Janet Mock. It peels back the curtain on Hollywood's golden age of cinema and the power-dynamics that ensued.

Summary
"HOLLYWOOD follows a group of aspiring actors and filmmakers in post-World War II Hollywood as they try to make it in Tinseltown — no matter the cost. Each character offers a unique glimpse behind the gilded curtain of Hollywood's Golden Age, spotlighting the unfair systems and biases across race, gender and sexuality that continue to this day. Provocative and incisive, HOLLYWOOD exposes and examines decades-old power dynamics, and what the entertainment landscape might look like if they had been dismantled."
