“I think any filmmaker will tell you when they wandered from theater to theater to watch their prints, it was disheartening to see the poor levels of light and the disrespect for films that existed in certain theater chains. It was always inconsistent. And in the lab, too, the photochemical process was very difficult to watch, because sometimes they were shipping prints that you didn't even know were two points off or three points off. We suffered greatly to make these films, and they'd be out-of-focus, with the sound too low.” ThinkingKnowsTwoSometimesLightFilmCertainThreeProcessDifficultSoundPoorLevelsWatchesFocusLowsTheaterChainsFilmmakerPrintDisrespectLabsInconsistentShippingDisheartening Author:Oliver Stone

“I wanted to make sure the focus [in The Land] was on human beings themselves and their decisions, but still connected to the urban environment that people associate as being black. I think I was able to make a film without commenting on "black this or black that" and you still feel the presence of it. There's no one character who's saying "we're all black and we're all in this struggle." It's that you just feel it. Some of that is because we get the sense from a lot of independent films that black people struggle all the time.” PeopleThinkingFeelsHumansStillsCharacterAbleWantedFilmBlackHuman BeingsDecisionStruggleEnvironmentFocusLandIndependentConnectedBlack PeopleUrbanAssociatesIndependent FilmAll BlackUrban Environment Author:Steven Caple Jr.
