Even the Most Successful Indie Directors Can’t Make a Living. Why?

Cannot comprehend praise for Anora. It feels like the perfect movie for the times, for sure (the times being, the fascist Trump era where Russia takes over the US through a bunch of useful idiots). #Anora depicts an ugly world of selfish, ignorant lowlifes, thugs, and criminals always looking for money and cheap comforts and thrills. It’s one of the ugliest movies I’ve seen in years, and I’ve seen lots.
For all its praise it’s only made $20M US box office.

Amazing that #Anora was shot for just $6 million—even #TheBrutalist for $10 million and #Conclave for $20 million…comparatively modest budgeted feature films. Loved seeing Billy Crystal, he should host the #Oscars again, the absolute best. #film #cinema #indie #movies #FilmSky #Oscars2025

Oscars: How Category Fraud, Social Media Scandals and Independent Film Defined an Unpredictable Season

"#Anora, o vencedor da noite, não fala das condições dilacerantes do #trabalhosexual. "Anora" romantiza o precário. O mesmo recado dado há séculos: mulheres, encontrem seus príncipes. É um recado violento e absolutamente amado por #Hollywood. Mas na premiação desse ano ele foi ainda mais eloquente dada a força das interpretações das sexagenárias #DemiMoore e #FernandaTorres. Mulheres: coloquem-se nos seus lugares. Não me venham com filmes sobre mães extraordinárias ou sobre a dureza de envelhecer nesse meio. Queremos as prostitutas jovens e monodimensionais. Elas serão premiadas."

De las nominadas a mejor película en los Oscar de este año solo vi Anora. Y me pareció una muy buena película, pero no se si como para ganar en esa categoría. Por supuesto que como no he visto las otras no tengo punto de comparación. Y también estoy bien lejos de ser un gran conocedor del 7mo arte

Being independent is cool again. #Flow #Anora
But that's so hard without community. To do both is where the magic happens. FOSS and fedi are great examples of the spirit of both coming together. The still missing puzzle piece in all this is making #value4value funding easier and more automatic.
