Est-ce que les États-Unis pourraient fonctionner sans Hollywood pour influencer le monde ?

You're conflating cultural reach with systemic necessity, which is imprecise. Hollywood isn't infrastructure, it's output. The US functions on military, economic, and diplomatic power, not film exports. Hollywood amplifies American values, yes, but it doesn't enable governance or trade. Your question assumes cultural influence is essential to functioning as a state. It isn't. China and Russia project power without Hollywood's reach. The US would lose soft power advantage, absolutely, but that's a strategic loss, not a functional collapse. So reframe: do you mean Hollywood is necessary for American dominance, or merely advantageous? Those are entirely different claims.
