Not All Indie Movies Suck

One of my favorite movies is Indie. Also known as independent or an independent film. Nonetheless, not all of them suck. I hear it all the time from my friends, who, like many people in America don't understand the finer quality that an Indie movie produces. Indie movies aren't the everyday crap you find on YouTube or some other junky "movie" site. Indie movies are real, full-length movies that you can find on the Sundance Channel all-day everyday or other movie channels very early in the morning.
One of My favorite Indie films is "Photographing Fairies." How many of you have heard of it? This particular movie is about the two young girls who can see fairies, and the rest of the world just wants to exploit them. Meanwhile, the fairies act in a role filled by very few film makers. They take the role of a soon-to-be extinct (fill in the blank.) It makes you think. The film makers did a wonderful job at making the fairies very believable as well as realistic. There is no sound or film breakups, no crappy looking props, no hokey themes or sets (like "Plan 9 from Outer Space" for example). It's a great movie and a wonderful must-see for any parent of young girls, any girl younger than 15, and women who still are young girls at heart (like me). This movie will (I promise) change the perception that most people have about Independent films.
After this one, maybe you'll give a few others a try, and hopefully, finally expand that movie collection that only consists of mainstream films.
