Mickey Rourke, Peter Facinelli, Brendan Fehr’s Thriller ‘Bring the Law’ Lands Release (Exclusive)

Sound of Metal isn’t really about metal — it’s about identity, loss, and what “fixing” something actually means. The film’s take on cochlear implants and deaf culture hits differently once you learn more about the real experiences behind them. Thought-provoking, frustrating, but definitely worth the conversation.

Helen Hunt’s Then She Found Me had the cast, the premise, and even Salman Rushdie in a cameo. What it didn’t have was patience, character depth, or a reason to exist beyond “sitcom pacing in feature length.”

Fun fact: The average Hollywood film marketing budget is 2X the production budget. That means if a movie costs $100M to make, studios spend $200M to sell it. Could you do more with less?

Biggest indie film gamble? Kevin Smith put his entire $27K life savings into making Clerks. It grossed over $3 million. Not bad for a film shot in a convenience store after hours. Would you bet your life savings on a film?

A year ago today we filmed "Things We Do For Love" with Sarah Lidstone, Josh Alexander and Molly Jackson. It was a lot of fun, shot in half-a-day and brings a little fun to a debate that still rages to this day.

Most indie filmmakers I meet are insanely talented—but they fail because they don’t know how to sell their film. Distribution is a business, not an art. Who’s learning how to market their movie?

Film investors don’t fund movies. They fund money-making machines. If you can’t prove how your film will make them money, they won’t invest. Period.
