What New Hollywood refers to

New Hollywood or post-classical Hollywood, refers to the time from roughly the late-1960s (Bonnie and ClydeThe Graduate) to the early 1980s (Heaven's GateOne from the Heart) when a new generation of young filmmakers came to prominence in America, influencing the types of films produced, their production and marketing, and impacted the way major studios approached filmmaking. 


The films they made were part of the studio system, and these individuals were not "independent filmmakers", but they introduced subject matter and styles that set them apart from the studio traditions. New Hollywood has also been defined as a broader filmmaking movement influenced by this period, which has been called the “Hollywood renaissance”
