All the worlds a stage, And all the men and women merely players;
William Shakspeare
I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.
Thomas Jefferson
In Hollywood a girls virtue is much less important than her hairdo.
Marilyn Monroe
The ladder of success in Hollywood is usually a press agent, actor, director, producer, leading man; and you are a star if you sleep with each of them in that order. Crude, but true.
Hedy Lamarr
Whats fascinating is, people in Washington would rather spend time in Hollywood, and people in Hollywood would rather spend time in Washington.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
I never feel lonely if Ive got a book - theyre like old friends. Even if youre not reading them over and over again, you know they are there. And theyre part of your history. They sort of tell a story about your journey through life.

Table of Contents
Introduction
We have recently acquired 4,000 new pages of documents from the Pentagon and CIA through the Freedom of Information Act. For us, these documents were the final nail in the coffin. These documents for the first time demonstrate that the US government has worked behind the scenes on over 800 major movies and more than 1,000 TV titles. Alongside the massive scale of these operations, our new book National Security Cinema details how US government involvement also includes script rewrites on some of the biggest and most popular films, including James Bond, the Transformers franchise, and movies from the Marvel and DC cinematic universes.
A similar influence is exerted over military-supported TV, which ranges from Hawaii Five-O to Americas Got Talent , Oprah and Jay Leno to Cupcake Wars , along with numerous documentaries by PBS, the History Channel and the BBC the James Bond adventure Thunderball , the Tom Clancy thriller Patriot Games and more recent films, including Meet the Parents and Salt . The CIA even helped to make an episode of Top Chef that was hosted at Langley, featuring then-CIA director Leon Panetta who was shown as having to skip dessert to attend to vital business. Was this scene real, or was it a dramatic statement for the cameras?

T he first Esoteric Hollywood was an adventure that forever changed my life. Embarking on numerous trips as a result and meeting a host of eccentric and fascinating characters (like myself) - like out of a movie -I hope the sequel will live up to the initial offering. Perhaps we can do an Empire Strikes Back to A New Hope that will one day end up a trilogy. The first installment was a collection that focused on major directors, themes and the esoteric in Hollywood, with an emphasis on the occult and philosophy. In this sequel we will explore some of those same themes, but this time around we will focus on those smoky, backroom deals behind Hollywood and the Pentagon Entertainment Complex and the prevalent theme of mind control.
Mind control comes in many forms and fashions, of course, from a film-like Svengali to a bumbling Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory , Hollywoods presentation of mind control and MK Ultra contain at once both truth and fiction, the smokescreen of the real with in the synthetic. Mind control and MK Ultra are also related to the occult and esoteric, despite assumptions to the contrary consider the showmanship of the shaman and his ritual dance and regalia. Hollywood elites were experimenting with LSD long before the Laurel Canyon and Haight Ashbury hippies had dropped any acid Cary Grant was reportedly peaking long before Jim Morrison. In fact, there are claims Cary Grant is who first piqued the interest of Timothy Leary:
In addition to providing a cinematic case study, though, the film [
He claimed he was saved by LSD, explains Mark
In fact, it wasnt just Cary Grant granted access to LSD before any hippies, but rather due to the intrepid efforts of one Captain Alfred Hubbard and his connections to the CIA and Sandoz Pharmaceuticals, a heavy dosing of Hollywood marked the decade:
Hubbard have LSD to thousands from all walks of life policemen, statesmen, captains of industry, church figures and scientists.
Just as the CIA and Pentagon pioneered the promotion of LSD and other products of the so-called counter-cultural revolution, in the same vein the Pentagon and its bankster-backers have gained more and more control over the arts and Hollywood since. The centralization of power over all corporate food, for example, in the hands of a few corporations mirrors the centralization of control over mass media entertainment by a few mega-corporations like Disney and Netflix.
Although war propaganda films are as old as the camera, and certainly not unique to Hollywood (think of Sergei
The origins of modern culture creation arise from the Cold War and the CIAs funnelling of countless millions into the cultural Cold War, at the hands of CIA operative C.D. Jackson and the National Committee for a Free Europe. Frances Stoner Saunders comments on the extent of this massive CIA arts project of the 1950s that appeared independent of government:

After one processes that bizarre nugget, it becomes easier to accept the fact famed TV chef Julia approach to French Theorists (which by extension applies to Hollywood and the arts control and influence through subversion is not chiefly a Marxist plot, as the Marxists are also the darlings of the banksters and foundations):
As a matter of fact, the agency responsible for coups dtat , targeted assassinations and the clandestine manipulation of foreign governments not only believes in the power of theory, but it dedicated significant resources to having a group of secret agents pore over what some consider to be the most recondite and intricate theory ever produced. For in
Not only do Hollywood and the
However, what is less well-known is how film studios are sometimes associated with other forms of nefarious operations not under the direct purview of our public servants (or are they?). Indeed, the history of Hollywoods connections to the mob and organized crime have been known since the era of the famed gangsters, as Sally
