How has the Israeli genocide against Gaza affected Hollywood, which has become "at war with itself"?

Pro-Palestinian demonstrators gathered outside the ceremony honoring Israeli actress Gal Gadot as she received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on March 18, while the following day, the star's location was occupied and vandalized in protest of her support for the genocide against Gaza.

Writer Sharon Waxman discusses in her article "Hollywood at War with Itself Over Gaza," published in The New York Times, the impact of the ongoing genocide against Gaza for nearly two years on global cinema, especially in its most important stronghold, Hollywood.

Waxman stated that Gaza has incited Hollywood against itself, and that the Venice and Toronto International Film Festivals have highlighted the divisions created by the war in Gaza.
