Unkindest Cut

Noah talks with Joe Queenan who made a movie using his own money and neighbors for actors. He wanted to demonstrate how easy it is to make a bad movie. He also managed to publish a book about his effort. (for stations: book is The Unkindest Cut: How a Hatchetman Critic Made His Own $7000 Movie and Put It All On His Credit Card published by Hyperion)
