Selon les recherches de Mark Wheeler, Hollywood agit comme un partenaire stratégique de Washington depuis le début du 20e siècle. En exportant ses films, l'industrie cinématographique diffuse le mode de vie et les valeurs des États-Unis à travers le monde. Eli explique que cette diplomatie culturelle permet de vendre l'image de l'Amérique avec une efficacité redoutable, transformant le cinéma en un véritable VRP de l'oncle Sam.
Woodrow Wilson a affirmé que « le commerce suit le film », soulignant l'importance économique de l'industrie cinématographique. Comme le précise Blythe, au début du 21e siècle, le cinéma est devenu l'un des premiers postes d'exportation du pays, dépassant l'aéronautique et l'automobile. Cette vision montre que Hollywood n'est pas qu'une source de divertissement, mais une force de frappe idéologique et économique majeure pour le gouvernement américain.
Le gouvernement américain a scellé une alliance précoce avec Hollywood pour favoriser son expansion. Eli mentionne que le Département du Commerce, via son Bureau du commerce étranger et domestique, a activement soutenu l'industrie pour en faire un outil de soft power. Ce soutien stratégique a permis à Hollywood de ne pas rester une simple bulle isolée en Californie, mais de devenir un pilier central de l'influence internationale de Washington.
