However, the reaction was eventually a more realistic and free-spirited New Hollywood movement, in which the directors largely controlled the creative process.

    Don't get distracted too much by some blockbusters; they're now what "Airport" was to the 70s. There already is a wave of serious films that can be compared to New Hollywood.
