Many Christians grow up feeling isolated and different, because their constant exposure to Hollywood movies has convinced them that few of their peers share their values. In fact, the opposite is true: few Americans actually subscribe to [[Hollywood values]].
Note this page lists general myths perpetrated by the film industry, not specific falsehoods, which can be found [[Hollywood values#Falsehoods|here]].
Major myths include:
*That promiscuity is common among American teenagers. In fact, more than half of all graduating high school seniors have saved themselves for marriage.<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/27/health/27well.html</ref>
*That drug use is common and acceptable behavior. Drug use, including marijuana, which is glorified by many comedy films, is not common or harmless.
*That many drug users use only marijuana. In fact, most habitual users of marijuana will proceed to use harder drugs.
*That organized crime is glamorous, or that they only deal in drugs, gambling, and prostitution. In fact, every American is hurt by organized crime, because they take a criminal profit on so many common commodities which come off boats.
