¿De dónde sacas esas ideas brillantes? Una pregunta que asola a todos los creadores. Dicen que el éxito tiene un precio, pero para la historia de Mitch Stockridge, autor de libros de autoayuda, ese precio alimenta un monstruo más grande dentro de todos nosotros. En las profundidades estresantes de la mente creativa, las distancias que uno atraviesa para tener éxito y la ansiedad de seguir produciendo mientras está en la cima.

For years, people have been making home movies, many times using pop culture properties that they may not own, but love. In recent years, these types of projects have come to be known as "fanfilms". Backyard Blockbusters looks at the history and influence of the fanfilm genre, as well as the copyright and fair use problems these films create, featuring highlights from and interviews with the creators of many popular films.

This is a student film made while Adam Bertocci was enrolled at Northwestern University, but compared to many other student films I have seen, it is head and shoulders better. It has excellent writing, direction and a professional quality about it you might not normally expect--plus the film is cute as can be with a really clever story. However, given that I have seen another of Adam Bertocci's excellent short films, LOVE: THE MOVIE, I actually was expecting something special--as LOVE was a heck of a fresh and entertaining film as well. Both films, it turns out, have already received awards and I certainly am not surprised. In fact, I can't wait until Bertocci "turns pro" so to speak--in other words, moves to Hollywood and makes a bazillion bucks making more nice little films--but with bigger budgets. Keep an eye out for this guy.
