The day cinema changed

coppola2.jpg

Precisely these days I've been reading Peter Biskind's wonderful book about the boom of independent cinema in the nineties: Down and Dirty Pictures: Miramax, Sundance, and the Rise of Independent Film.

It's like the second part of another essential: Easy Riders, Raging Bulls.

Two books which tell, in a fascinating way, two convulsed decades in the history of cinema.

Today, 20 years after the beginning of the second decade and 40 after the first one, something has taken place which I'm sure would be the first chapter of a third book: the book which will tell how the Internet changed everything.


Today is the first day of the rest of the decade and we are here, not only as spectators but also as active participants. Risking our necks.


Las horas perdidas does an exceptional chronicle of what has happened. Don't miss it ;)
