My Interests

Testimonial: "Terry l. Woodard had just graduated from Morehouse College. A classmate named Shelton Lee asked him to pony up a few thousand bucks for Lee's film project. Short on cash, Woodard turned Lee down. What a mistake. You know the young filmmaker as Spike Lee. He scraped up enough money to make the 1986 hit She's Gotta Have It. A triumph for a film not made by a big studio and costing only $175,000, the flick grossed $7.1 million at the domestic box office, and its investors continue to receive profit checks." From The Reel World Brett Pulley 12.11.06. Also go to http://www.mecfilms.com/moviepubs/memos/whyinves.htm for the pros investing in an independent film thank you

Movies:

All. I do have reservation about some films, like Jurassic Park 3 wasn't good, but they still have done, and I have not. I hope to change that.

Television:

Most of the items on televsion, but not a big fan of "reality" televison shows (ex. American Idol). Not tryin' to hate on though.

Books:

I like them in general.

Heroes:

Civil: Malcolm, MLK, Gandhi, & The JC. Personal: My family authority figures. Film: Many, but especially Scorsese, Spike, Spielberg, his Mexican equivalent Spielbergo, Smith, Lucas, Tarantino, The Hughes Brothers, Welles, Brooks, Allen, and I respect all filmmakers that have come before me. I can't hate on somebody that has done it, while I just dream about it.
