Comments on: Filmmaker as Enforcer http://BeerWarsMovie.Com/2009/08/27/filmmaker-as-enforcer/ In America, size matters. The bigger you are, the more power you have, especially in the business world. Director Anat Baron takes you on a no holds barred exploration of the U.S. beer industry that ultimately reveals the truth behind the label of your favorite beer. Told from an insider’s perspective, the film goes behind the scenes of the daily battles and all out wars that dominate one of America’s favorite industries.

Consumers need to respect that and producers need to learn how to market it and profit from it without alienating their customers. Sadly both consumers and producers' lack of knowledge of copyright leads to abuses on both sides. Anat, I hope you found the bar in San Diego to be apologetic and eager to pay an appropriate screening fee Brian and Anat,

As an independent filmmaker who self funded the film, I have a right to make my money back. If I had no intention of having payback, I would not have invested as much money. Creative Commons is great for some people. It doesn't apply here because that wasn't the model. And I have nothing to do with MPAA. Sorry you'll miss out. Anat Brian:

Especially when you’re dealing with an independent filmmaker." rap rings very hollow my friend. Many people release their works under creative commons and make a very nice living and they don't have to pull the mpaa iron fist stunt on their fans either. when people see your work has value they will buy(ask Scott Sigler,,J.C Hutchins &Corey Doctorow). I wanted this film for Christmas but told my wife not to bother you've just lost 1 customer.
