Additional Info: “When asked if they thought Hollywood values were at odds with those of most of America, 60 percent agreed. When asked if they though the success of such gay-themed films such as ‘Brokeback Mountain,’ ‘Transamerica’ and ‘Capote’ (all Oscar nominees) reflected Hollywood’s values or the growing acceptance of alternative lifestyles, respondents were fairly evenly split (50 percent thought it reflected Hollywood’s values, 44 percent thought it reflected changing attitudes).”
