Plot OutlineIn its broadcast debut on The Independent Film Channel, "They Shoot Movies, Don't They...the making of Mirage" received more viewer reaction than all 450 other films on the channel - combined. "They Shoot Movies, Don't They?" is a voyeuristic look at first time director Tom Paulson, and the movie he wrote called "Mirage". Frank Gallagher is the documentarian whose camera watches as Paulson navigates through a jungle of investors, colleagues, friends and family, searching for money to finish his film. The film offers a line-blurring examination of what one might give up in order to succeed. |
Reviews
"'The Way We Were' meets 'Apocalypse Now'" - Film Threat "A reality cinema 'Citizen Kane'" - DVD Savant A less celebrated but perhaps more telling book inside Hollywood than HBO's 'Project Greenlight'" - Los Angeles Times "You’ll find yourself intrigued by a honestly involving personal journey" - David Cornelisu, eFilm Critic |
