“I think Hollywood has a class system. The actors are like the inmates, but the truth is they are running the asylum”
— Robert De Niro

Simplified Meaning:
In Hollywood, there's a hierarchy where people are treated differently based on their status. Actors might seem like they have less power, similar to how prisoners don't have much control. However, in reality, these actors actually influence a lot of decisions and really drive the industry forward. For example, a very famous actor can choose which movies they want to be in, which can decide the success of the movie. Just like how patients might seem to follow in an asylum, but if they were actually calling the shots, it would show they have the real power. So, despite looking like they're at the bottom, actors in Hollywood have a lot of control over their careers and the entertainment world.
