In the words of producer David O. Selznick,
Hollywood is like Egypt, full of crumbling

And the ruins are swiftly being cleared away.
Every day there are fewer traces of the go...

The films themselves became vessels for
esoteric symbolism.

The Wizard of Oz, for instance, a film
teaming with allegorical and mystical

The 1960s marked a seismic cultural shift.
Mirroring society's gravitation towards

The 1940s and 1950s,

a period marked by both innovation and
paranoia,

saw Hollywood grappling with its identity.

Amidst this, the industry's flirtation with
the occult lingered,
