Abstract

As this is being written, the motion-picture and television industries, along with most others, are greatly concerned with the “energy crisis.” Suddenly there are shortages, imminent or actual, of almost every source of energy needed to keep our economy functioning. We have, or we forsee, shortages of electrical power and of gasoline, heating oil, propane and other fuels — all of which arc produced by or derived from petroleum. Moreover, we face shortages or projected shortages of plastics, petrochemicals, and other essential materials which arc also derived from oil. As a result, we are beginning to realize that no other crisis in recent years has portended such a drastic effect upon industrial-nation economics as this energy crisis — not gold crises, not import-export crises, not labor crises — nothing.
