Microcinema Reading

The Microcinema reading was pretty neat.  It is nice to know that some people still appreciate the art part of film and that it is still recognized.  However, it does still remain a bit unclear to me about how these filmmakers raise enough money for these works of art they make.  I guess it might also still be that when making these films just for the arts, money is not a concern.  They just do it for what unique features can be brought out on film.  I, sadly, have never been to one of these Independent art house theaters, but if I ever get the chance to go, I'm sure it would be a pretty sweet experience.  Just knowing that I am surrounded by the unique personality of the theater alone would be fun in itself.
