Hollywood was built in large part by Jewish immigrants, but how much of that legacy remains today? Rabbi Elliot Cosgrove and Jon Frankel explore the Jewish roots of the movie industry, the evolving role of Jewish identity in American culture, and whether Hollywood is losing its creative soul. Joined by author and cultural critic David Mikics, they discuss everything from Louis B. Mayer and Casablanca to Spielberg, Kubrick, and the challenges facing Jewish voices in entertainment today.
