It all took a turn in the 60s, liberation movement, prayer removed from schools, mainstream films with sex, drug use, profanities, blasphemy. 'Turn on, tune in and drop out'. The unHolywood aspect had been rife with debauchery and hedonism for years before this, but in my view from the 60s and 70s everything was suddenly pushed out to the masses.
