Indie Film Lover Pillows

Tenafly International Film Festival

Well...there you have it.

"Let's make a low-budget movie till help arrives."

"Tiffany tells me you were at Sundance."

"I'll do the movie but I want to be highly compensated and highly acclaimed."

"We're in the part of the movie that's usually a montage."

I'm here with movie expert, Mister Flick, to discuss monsters who are actors. Let's start with Jekyll and Hyde. He does some good work and some bad work. Who picks scripts well? Dracula finds roles he can really sink his teeth into. Frankenstein, on the other hand, will take just about any part! What about King Kong's career? It was brief but he did climb to the top! And some critics think the Invisible Man is among the best. I agree with that ... but he only does low-budget indie films

"The new Matter-Eater Lad movie is going to be better than the new Avengers movie because it's not about saving the whole world." "Yeah. People are tired of blockbusters where the fate of the whole world is at stake. That's why 'The Martian' did so well." "It was only about the fate of Matt Damon and his potato garden." "I want to see a movie where aliens try to conquer Venus and nobody cares." "We really should have our own movie review show."

'Wow! That's probably the best Kyrgyzstani neo-realist horror-comedy crossover I've seen so far this year.'

"For the best picture not having won anything thereby being eliminated from this category..."

"Death Star? Is that in the Valley?"

"I'll have a cup of coffee, and would you mind removing that ridiculous painting and turning off the Wilco?"

'...And now, the film most criticized for eroding traditional family values, the nominees are...'

Buster Keaton

"I'm glad they want comedy... the budget is a joke."

Jimmy Cagney.

Movies vs. Films

Movie Awards. That movie always comes alone and never stays for the after-party. It's an independent film.

Kirsten Johnson

Stan Laural & Oliver Hardy.

"Ronny, there's not going to be any 3-D. The studio wants you to shoot it on your cell phone."
