I love this magazine!!! As if it isn’t hard enough to find anyone out there with a good appreciation of independent film (and by appreciation, I also mean knowledge), but then you have to deal with all these film nerds who think that if it wasn’t done on a shoestring budget by a no-name director, it must be bad. FILMMAKER does an excellent job of giving an overview of the world of independent film, while still providing good discussions of some more mainstream films. It’s tough, when reviewing and writing criticism of any art form, to know what to discuss, and I think that FILMMAKER does this.

I ordered an one year subscription as a gift to my sister. It’s a quarterly magazine. My sister only received one issue in 6 months. When she contacted the publisher, they were lukewarm and told her that it’s only a quarterly issue, so it’s normal to wait for a few months, like my sister can’t do the math. They sent my sister a digital format of the magazine, and that was it. This is so horrible. My gift has now become an inconvenience. I say just read the PDF files of past issues online for free.
