“I have been part of an industry that has unwittingly and yes, even wittingly, caused much damage to America and to the world,” Gerald Molen writes in a letter mailed to hundreds of Christian and conservative leaders.
Gerald Molen, the Oscar-winning producer of Schindler’s List, Jurassic Park and other films directed by Steven Spielberg, has delivered a letter to 866 Christian and conservative leaders that accuses Hollywood of “depravity” and causing “much damage to America.”
“As a member of the Hollywood community, I have been part of an industry that has unwittingly and yes, even wittingly, caused much damage to America and to the world, and I am well aware of the blight that has too often been the result of such actions,” Molen wrote in a letter that sources forwarded to The Hollywood Reporter.
“Throughout my years in Hollywood, I tried to live my life differently and be a part of projects that I would be proud to have my grandchildren watch,” Molen wrote. “It hasn’t been easy, but I’ve at least tried to stand against the tide of depravity that has too often flourished there.”
Among the 866 people who were mailed a copy of the letter are politicians such as former President George W. Bush and Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal; TV and radio hosts Hugh Hewitt and Mike Huckabee; religious leader Franklin Graham; and some actors, such as Patricia Heaton, who stars in the Christian comedy film Mom’s Night Out.
