- Fog City Mavericks - Filmmaking History Brought To Life
Fog City Mavericks: The Filmakers of San Francisco is at once compelling and straight to the point.

Some people were born there and some made their careers there, but the film attempts to draw paralells between all of them for their non-conventional works and careers.

First and foremost, I don't think there is much instruction here to replace the training that anybody would get in film school. But there is plenty of inspiration. And there are plenty of examples of the kinds of attitudes that helped these people produce some of the greatest films ever made, even when they had to go up against the resistance of most or all of the Hollywood elite of the time.

- What you will not learn in film school
I watched this video twice on cable and now purchased the DVD so I can go back to it when I need inspiration. I have taken a number of film classes but they never teach you about guts and what it takes to make a great film. Here you will find that fire in the belly that it takes to make the next great film. A great experience for any aspiring film maker; or for anyone who wants to stand out from the crowd in their chosen industry, it is full of the "Right Stuff."

At 62, this documentary has given me the courage to step out and try what I have loved all my life, movie making. I am going to make a movie too.
