Sykk - Click here for an interesting article about the director of Narc. Sounds like he broke through into the big time. Narc was his first big budget film and for his next flick the studio gave him a Harrison Ford thriller and a $70 million budget.. not bad for his sophomore outing. The new movie with Ford has Ford playing a detective who is hired by a drug-dealer to find the person who kidnapped and killed the dealer's wife. Sounds pretty good.

Nice!
I love reading stories like these. That's why I find independent cinema so fascinating...the whole process of these guys working on small budgets and financing their films with credit cards. There's a great documentary called "American Movie" that chronicles a young filmmaker making his dream movie "Coven" and how he was this average Minnesota hick who wanted to make a movie and got financing via his senile uncle. The documentary is more entertaining than the movie he ended up making ;)
