There's nothing preventing Conservatives from making movies. Most are just not interested in the film business.

There is interest in conservative films (both filmmakers and audiences).

There is a liberal bent and agenda at play in the industry (studios, distribution, critical acclaim). If the movers and shakers bury your product because it isn't politically correct, it is difficult to recuperate the millions of dollars in investment.

And that is true of fictional (even docudramas) films as well as documentaries.

The big story of 2004 was how much documentary films were playing a roll in the presidential election. Unreported by the MSM was how conservative filmmakers were getting into the game in a bigger way and even establishing a filmfest of such works.

Roger Ebert used to be a credible film critic. He even made the claim that he could embrace a film he didn't agree with politically. That statement was proven false when he gave a zero star review for a suspense film set in Texas about a man on death row. Rog liked the cast and crew but disagreed with the message and said that this film could not be made and set in Texas.

There is a blacklist in Hollywood.
