		<description><![CDATA[As many of you know, I&#8217;ve travelled to many places in Latin America over the last few years, mainly talking to Latin filmmakers about both the business and the craft of moviemaking. The most common question that comes up is why, given the size of the Latin population in the U.S., is there not a [...]]]></description>

My goal was to demystify the event, and to give them a ground level tutorial so that if they end up coming back in any capacity, they could hit the ground running. I [...]]]></description>

There have been experiments like Moviemobz in Brazil, and proposals like Critical Mass Ticketing from withoutabox.

I said (quoting a business school professor) that &#8220;film has never been a business&#8230;it&#8217;s a hobby.&#8221; Let me clarify why I brought this up, and perhaps it will ease some of your minds.

Art film theaters are thriving, wherever they are managed by people who really know what they are doing, and who really care. I&#8217;d like to offer up one example.  The Miami Beach Cinematheque, one of the venues [...]]]></description>
