    The ressurection of a performance | Dark

    What do you do when Hollywood takes your art away from you? Any regular filmmaker would just suffer in silence, but Paul Schrader, the last rebel filmmaker, just went rogue and recut it himself. With a young and crazy editor and only the DVD workprint to work with. Paulk Schrader took the mediocre "Dying of the light" and turned it into a gonzo masterpiece, sort of.   Support the show on https://www.patreon.com/DontMakeAScene and get access to hundreds of hours of exclusive content, including exclusive episodes, commentary tracks and exclusive videos.
