Title Down and Dirty Pictures: Miramax, Sundance and the Rise of Independent Film
Author(s)Peter Biskind
Town London
Publication Date 00-00-2004
Comments Very gossipy book that focuses mainly on American film. However a section relevant to Australian cinema is talking about the acquisition of the film 'Shine' and how there was a fight over it's acquisition by various film studios.
Synopsis Focuses on the development of the independent film industry from the 1980s until 2001.



In particular the book concentrates on the amazing rise of the Miramax film studio and the Sundance Festival.
