	A filmmakers filmmaker
		To become a filmmaker, you need to master these skills and you must be able to assert your vision over all of them.
		As a filmmaker, I'm looking for those scripts that are so refreshingly different or compelling that a movie's success can be guaranteed by word of mouth alone.
		Remember, for you as a filmmaker, the best investments aren't real estate, stocks or whatever your financial advisor tells you; it's making movies, that's what your best investment is. Of course, you need a place to live...

	Midnight Eye review: Yukoku (1966)
		Yukoku is an extremely rare and historic piece, not only for proving that Japan's foremost twentieth century author was also in fact a filmmaker, but because the events portrayed in it were an omen for Yukio Mishima's suicide a few years later.
		Based on Mishima's own novel of the same name, which was in turn inspired by the true events of 'Ni ni roku' - a failed, patriotically-motivated, attempted coup by a group of officers on February 26, 1936 - Yukoku deals with the ritual suicide of high-ranking naval officer Takeyama.
		Yukoku remains Mishima's only film as a director, although he was involved in filmmaking in other capacities, most famously on his collaboration with Kinji Fukasaku on Black Lizard (Kurotokage, 1968) which he wrote, based on his own play which in turn was based on a novel by Edogawa Rampo.

	DVD Verdict Review - George Stevens: A Filmmaker's Journey
		George Stevens: A Filmmaker's Journey takes us on an engrossing tour through the acclaimed director's career that gives us a greater understanding of his talent, his background, his creative preoccupations, and the experiences in World War II that irrevocably changed his approach to filmmaking.
		From shots of cities reduced to rubble, to young women and soldiers celebrating the liberation of Paris, to shattering sequences of concentration camps, Stevens captures many faces of war with an immediacy that speaks of both his talent and the power of the scenes he was viewing.
		George Stevens: A Filmmaker's Journey is a skilled and often fascinating film, and it brings much-deserved attention and appreciation to a man who created many films that are both admired and loved, and which still have much insight to offer us on American life and character.

	DIY Filmmaker Sujewa: Indie Filmmaker Questions the Value of Indie Film Festivals to Real Indie/DIY Film Projects
		So, as a DIY filmmaker who made an ultra-low budget movie, and as a self-distributor, I do not find submitting to indie film festivals appealing or useful at this point.
		One thing that concerns folks might be that the DIY filmmaker or musician, etc. might not have enough time to concentrate on his or her craft as some might like.
		I still think a filmmaker producing screenings is easier than a band producing a live show, fewer people involved, the work is already made, etc. As hundreds of indie/DIY bands regularly self-distro & perform their work, I find that their work model is very useful to indie film.

	Bright Lights Film Journal \| Gregory Markopoulos
		The filmmaker isolates portions of the nude male body to fragment the viewer's perception, then flashes images of the whole man in naked splendor.
		Warhol regular Taylor Mead adds some amusing moments as a kind of demented bird-figure in a pink tattered dress, but most mesmerizing is the recurring motif of the romanticized male in a posture of longing.
		This brief film, a paean by the filmmaker to his New York apartment (the title refers to the color of the walls), dazzles the viewer with its use of the strobe-edit and the superimposition, bringing an empty, quiet space to gorgeous, glittering life.

		Filmmaker Jamie Stuart, who is working on an article upcoming for Filmmaker, met Michel Gondry recently at New York's Regency Hotel.
		For nearly half a century, Chabrol and bourgeoisie have been an odd couple of partners in success; their conflict is among the great rivalries in French filmmaking: a Connors-McEnroe feud extended over the length of five tennis careers.
		Geared (notice the pun?) toward emerging filmmakers with high aspirations, the contest asks for a short film under 40 minutes along with a corresponding feature length script.

	Filmmaker (1968) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		An early film from director George Lucas that chronicles the making of Francis Ford Coppola's ‘The Rain People', Lucas goes on the road with the crew and documents the processes and troubles involved in the making of the film.
		Lucas focuses his film on Francis and mostly just chronicles the process of daily filming, using narration from the different crew to explain the problems they had making a low budget film.
		One of the most interesting points of the film is its depiction of the new wave of filmmaking, as the equipment was now lightweight it was easy to break away from the studio backlots and go out on the road.

		She said, "Ah, isn't there just a racism in Hollywood about women filmmakers?" And I was just listening to her thinking I couldn't really relate to it because maybe there is and I'm naïve to it.

	French culture \| cinema: Jean Eustache Retrospective (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Jean Eustache is far and away the most important French filmmaker of the post-New Wave era.
		In due course, he turned himself from a country mouse into a citified dandy, a metamorphosis chronicled with loving care throughout his small but formidable body of work.
		His 1973 The Mother And The Whore is the kind of movie that few filmmakers even allow themselves to contemplate, let alone make: brutally honest as self-portraiture, as frank about human relationships (sexual and otherwise) as movies have ever gotten, and the last word on post-'68 bohemian Paris.

		Their entertainment value is debatable (specially in the case of Funny), but both movies do make reality, actual existence, some major (reflected in Shadows) or some very minor (reflected in Funny Ha Ha) obstacles and joys in life more special & sacred.
