* Rick Schmidt , veteran indie filmmaker, director of 25 features, author of "Feature Filmmaking At Used Car Prices", is coming back to NYC after a 12 year absence to show his new movie Tears of Bankers at NewFilmmakers/Anthology Film Archives on 9/4/12. Here is an interview with Schmidt about indie film, Tears of Bankers, and several related items. He's got a lot of interesting things to say: :: Sujewa : Rick, how do you feel about returning to NYC to show your new movie Tears of Bankers? And when was the last time that you screened a movie in NYC? Share any interesting information about that event. :: Rick : Well, for starters it's been...um...since 2000 that I've had a show in NYC – when IFFM at Angelica showed my collaborative Chetzemoka's Curse (Dogme No. 10) at the market. And that was one of those irritating experiences where buyers, filmmakers, and fest people duck in and out all through a screening, which is pretty unpleasant.
