I wonder if that's a limit of storytelling. Grand social change is hard to film. Even team effort cohesion requires a lot of actors and writing to pull off.

No matter how sound the morals and story, if it's not entertaining, it might fail as mass media.

A little bit of that, a little bit of plain ol power fantasy.

One of the hallmarks of early Spielberg was the ability to have a group all talking at once and it sounding natural. Like the City Council Meeting in Jaws is a great example of fictional social change in a film setting that includes a lot of townsfolk in the story.
