In 1960, two movies, not made for money, sought to negatively influence the public opinion of Christianity. These movies, “Inherit the Wind” and “Elmer Gantry,” going hand-in-hand with the counter cultural movements of the 60s, led the conservative movement to go ‘underground’. This ultimately gave rise to a conservative movement’s comeback in the late 1970s. The flagships of the conservative movement that broke the silence of the underground were the magazines The Freeman and National Review. Anti-communism sentiment gave rise to pro-conservative economics that are still present in America today.
