Movies are expensive to make because the system was built to be expensive.

It's been a year of learning. From entering the ever evolving "vertical" filmmaking universe, producing a studio feature, and slowly developing The Quiet Canadians, I feel like I learned more this year than in the past 18 years of being in the movie "biz".

I don’t know if I have ever been so happy with a Vancouver Canucks signing than I am with Brock Boesser’s signing.

True independent film:

1. Economy of means

The movie business has seen its biggest success when it has taken risks on ideas that β€œwouldn’t work” according to the execs.

Explain that logic to me…
