O Brother Where Art Thou - 4/5 One of the Coen's best. Step Brothers - 3/5 A few funny moments, but its no Anchorman. L'Atalante - 4.5/5 Beautiful French film from the 30's. The underwater sequence is superb. Apparently the director was at deaths door during the making of, but the film he...

Best of luck! :)

Anyone can be a producer, but if you are trying to get funding they probably want to see someone with a few films to his/her name. Try and hook up with someone who has a bit of experience in producing short films and maybe has some festival cred.

Haha, yes, I use that one too.

There was a list of films on the internet of the 200 or so films Steven Spielberg expected you to have seen if you wanted to work with him. Most of them were oldies. I think the list was debunked as being a fake though. :hmm: I have heard him say in interviews though that the best thing you can...

Hi Jack, welcome. :) What's the project about?

I got the impression that the story wasn't finished yet? ie. there's still more to come? Is this the case? If not then I agree the ending is a bit weak. I really like the setup/concept though. The "I correspond by post on Tuesdays" line made me laugh. Not sure why Dan finds it so distressing...

Yeah, I thought about him too, but then I thought about all the people who say he doesn't talk much, and how he doesn't seem to like interacting with strangers or anybody unless he has to. I'm pretty sure he would just be all awkward and quiet and spend the whole lunch waiting for me to leave...

Congratulations. :D

Oh man, that cowbell sketch gets me every time.

Alive: Spielberg. Not only is he a master of the craft, but he obviously has a very extensive knowledge of old films too. Could learn a lot. Dead: Maybe Orson Welles, or Truffaut.

"Burden of Dreams" - chronicles Werner Herzog making his film 'Fitzcarraldo' (sp?). I haven't seen it yet, but apparently it's pretty cool.

And it appears my film is on the list. Thanks Cracker Funk!

Hey thanks for the links guys. Some real good stuff there. I had my eye on remaking a film from 1921, so am hoping there's a bit of room to move on that 1917 rule :) Cheers for responding.

I really liked Broadway Danny Rose. Interesting the way he bookends it with those guys sitting around the diner talking. Last film I saw was 'Hook'. The haters are wrong. It is awesome.

I preface this by saying I know next to nothing about the technicalities of copyright. Just two questions if anyone could help? 1) Any websites out there with uncopyrighted stock footage you can use in films? I'm thinking old newsreels, animal footage, war footage, etc. I'm not after anything...

I just watched 'The Aviator' again yesterday. She is great in that.

Yeah I like the concept. I pictured it as a suspense/thriller also, but I guess just go with how you see it in your head.

I love all three, but for me its that last half hour or so. The Good The Bad The Ugly just goes to a whole other level.
