NEW HOLLYWOOD - A film movement from the 60s to the 80s when young filmmakers came to prominence in America. They drastically changed the kinds of films produced in Hollywood films and the way they were marketed. 1967’s Bonnie & Clyde, with its a mix of graphic violence, sex, humor, and its theme of glamorous disaffected youth was a hit. The Graduate, Easy Rider, and the Academy Award-winning Midnight Cowboy followed in quick succession.
