Down and Dirty Pictures: Miramax, Sundance, and the Rise of Independent Film
Biskind chronicles the development of independent filmmaking and of its supporters, the Sundance Film Festival and Miramax Films, by focusing on the personalities involved. The result is a gossipy, and sometimes outrageous, anecdotal account of the machinations of the film industry's biggest players. Despite his breezy tone, Biskind offers some thoughtful analysis about the future of independent film and the perils of its success.
