your representation of the "local natives" does a good job of suggesting how they are marginalized in the film process

Spot on, as always - Mahalo Will !On the bright side, increasing reliance on taxpayer subsidies for silly & unnecessary programs suggests their days are numbered. While watching a show last night, got to see about 10 minutes at a time, alternating with 3 minute interruptions for commercials. That's obnoxious enough, and then realized there were no ads other than for other shows on that channel. Like a salmon at the end of its life: struggling upstream, feeding off its own fat, then muscle, what fishermen call "penitentiary-grade" fish. Went outside and watched the stars for free; Five thumbs up & highly recommended!

The economic development funded by taxpayer subsidies colorfully appears to be set on a glitzy status-quo stage looking legally profitable and relaxed. While just offstage from the media spotlights lurking in the jungle are the natives who are losing their celebrity worship of the successful, and instead becoming increasingly restless, instinctually realizing that the Darwinian Law of the Asphalt Jungle, where the rich get richer, ain't that natural or fair especially for the natives.
