***Every artist has to make some money, and every artist has to feed his family.

He-he... that wasn't the case with Passion in the Desert!

It is true that Hollywood has become just the pop corn factory - that was their choice, so they can't complain.

But there are many good movies being made in the US at the independent studios... fortunately. Many are quite interesting. Things like Living in Oblivion - one of my long time favorites.

And thank Robert Redford for creating the Sundance Festival, where the indies see the limelight.

But overall today most good movies are made outside the US. When you see things like Autumn Spring you realize that making a good film has nothing to do with money, and everything with love for people (it shows in it sooo readily) and the desire to create something good.
