If I thought for a second anybody was actually reading this I'd update more often. Maybe I will anyway, but regardless, I read this article by Jeremy Smith today on www.chud.com. As a comment on how the public (as opposed to dysfunctional cineastes like myself) appreciate film, the piece struck me as incisive and timely. But maybe that's because I don't read other peoples' blogs.
"We're not commenting anymore; we're reinventing our populist masterpieces with a corporate mindset. And it's not about thrilling, but suckering. Hitchcock needed word of mouth; today's filmmakers just need an opening weekend."
