More From William Hurt

I was on television a couple of years ago and the reporter asked me, "how does it feel being on mainstream media? it's not often poets get on mainstream media." i said, "well i think you're the dominant media, the dominant culture, but you're not the mainstream media. the mainstream media is still the high culture of intellectuals: writers, readers, editors, librarians, professors, artists, art critics, poets, novelists, and people who think. they are the mainstream culture, even though you may be the dominant culture."

You know, independent films have been institutionalized, practically. every studio has got a boutique arthouse label. there's like, 18 different independent film-financing funds. in fact, i think the children of those films are getting made. a more interesting question is whether those films are going to get seen and appreciated.
Children Independent Thinking
Independent documentary isnt beholden to some of the interests that the mainstream media are influenced by. its a pathway to renegade, independent reporting in an in-depth, investigative fashion, and it can do so with a compassionate lens; it allows people to speak in a way that is more human than the mainstream media approach.
Fashion Independent Media
I'm drawn to a lot of first-time directors. one of the great common denominators in these small independent films is that there's a person, or two people, who have an absolutely monomaniacal passion to get these films made. that's what makes them happen. sometimes, it takes years and years to finally get it done, but by never backing down, by never giving up, they get these films to the screen by hook or by crook.
Giving Up Independent Passion
A lot of people just go to movies that feed into their preexisting and not so noble needs and desires: they just go to action pictures, and things like that. but if you go to foreign films, if you go to documentaries, if you go to independent films, if you go to good films, you will become a better person because you will understand human nature better. movies record human nature in a better way than any other art form, that's for sure.
Art Independent People
I think there is a mainstream media. cnn is mainstream media, and the main, abc, cbs, nbc are mainstream media. and i think it's just essentially to make the point that we are largely in the center without particular axes to grind, without ideologies which are represented in our daily coverage, at least certainly not on purpose.
