Hollywood is one of the largest movie industries in the world. The industry produces blockbusters almost every year. The industry holds award shows to thank these actors and film crew. Hollywood honors and celebrates actors and everyone involved in a movie. Some major award shows involve The Oscars, The Emmy Awards, and The Golden Globe.
These award nights see the highest names in the industry grace the event with their presence. Award shows won’t mean that cinema industry workers are being treated respectfully unless they are. The writer and actor union are currently on strike to bring this unfair treatment to light. They demand proper wages, proper treatment, and security.
