Filmmakers vs. Tycoons

2005 · 97 min · ★ 6.8 · Documentary

How the cinema industry does not respect the author's work as it was conceived, how manipulates the motion pictures in order to make them easier to watch by an undemanding audience or even how mutilates them to adapt the original formats and runtimes to the restrictive frame of the television screen and the abusive requirements of advertising. (Followed by “Filmmakers in Action.”)

Directed by Carlos Benpar · Written by Ferrán Alberich
