Project Greenlight (TV Series)

Aroview: This outstanding documentary series about the making of a low-budget feature film is mandatory for anyone interested in film and the film-making process, or any creative project involving team dynamics.

Developed by Hollywood golden boys Ben Affleck and Matt Damon and producer Chris Moore, one greenhorn was chosen from 10,000 submitted scripts to direct his script with a million dollars of Miramax money and a guaranteed theatrical release. The interspersing of on-the-spot action with after-the-fact interviews together with generous camera access brings an unprecedented insight into the machinations of Hollywood, with its daily power struggles, conflicting agendas and inevitable compromises. A veritable feast for cinephiles and would-be Spielbergs, this four-disc set includes the 12-episode series, a bonus disc of extras, and the completed feature film itself.
