First sentence: LOW - COST INDEPENDENT MOVIEMAKING is such a terrific idea - maybe the industry's only hope of re-establishing connections, a segment at a time, with an increasingly fragmented audience - that the tendency, in practice, to view independent production, not as a strategy, but as a Cause in its own right, is a dreary spectacle indeed.
