I Don't Think American Independent Films Have Ever Really Been Particularly Experimental, Except For The Original Guys From The '60s Who Were Huge Influences, Like Stan Brakhage, Robert Breer, And Stan Van Der Beek. They Were The True Independents.

I Have This New Theory About Films. It's Almost Like Astrology, Where If We Started On A Tuesday The Film Will Be Different Than If We Started On A Wednesday. Not Because Of The Planets. It's That Sometimes You Start With The Wrong Balance And The Whole Thing Gets Messed Up.
