While we weren’t looking, the mid-budget adult-oriented motion picture has all but disappeared.
PARANORMAL ACTIVITY THE MARKED ONES KISSSCENE MOVIE
As Mad Men’s Matthew Weiner put it, “Something happened that nobody can make a movie between $500,000 and $80 million. Movies that don’t fit into that box (thoughtful dramas, dark comedies, oddball thrillers, experimental efforts) were relegated to the indies, where freedom is greater, but resources are far more limited. Studios began to make fewer films, betting big on would-be blockbusters, operating under the assumption that large investments equal large returns. But slowly, quietly, over roughly the decade and a half since the turn of the century, the paradigm shifted. Back in the 1980s and 1990s, when Waters and Lynch were doing their most commercially successful work, it was possible to finance - either independently or via or the studio system - mid-budget films (anywhere from $5 million to $60 million) with an adult sensibility. “You’ve seen waves of things go up and down, but maybe the arthouse will be back in vogue, and they’ll reappear all over the place again. There’s not a whole lot that any of us can do about it,” David Lynch, who hasn’t directed a feature since 2006’s Inland Empire, explained over the summer. But it’s instructive, and sad, that when Waters - a well-dressed dandy of notorious sexual appetites - compiles his biggest fantasies, the very first one is of someone doing what people used to do all the time: giving him money to make a movie.Īnd Waters isn’t the only beloved filmmaker harboring this fantasy. The scene was part of “The Best That Could Happen,” a novella of perfect, imaginary hitchhiking encounters, within Carsick. There was no Harris, and there was no five million dollars. There was only one problem with Harris’ offer: It was a total fantasy.

“You pay me back if it ever breaks even.” “I explain that I had a development deal to make Fruitcake,” Waters writes, but on the eve of that dark holiday comedy’s production, “the recession happened, the independent film business as I knew it fell apart, and now all the distributors and film financiers want the budgets to be under $2 million, which I can’t do anymore.” His traveling companion told Waters, “I’ll back it,” pledging five million dollars cash. They talked for a bit about movies before Harris asked the (five) million-dollar question: “How come you aren’t making a movie?”

According to his hitchhiking chronicle Carsick, his very first driver was “Harris,” “an art school type” with a sideline in weed dealing who called himself a fan.
