Over examines the artistic styles, goals, and thematic interests of dramatists and film directors of works of social commitment. He also considers the conditions and economics of wide audience appeal that prevent Hollywood and many independent filmmakers from effectively addressing these politically explosive issues. In contrast, differing cultures and economic concerns result in third world filmmakers and playwrights producing more comprehensive expositions of social issues. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eConsidering a selected group of film and stage movements the author concludes with an optimistic prediction for political drama in the new century.
