Seriously Bro, IDGAF: THE JOURNEY OF THE WORLD’S ANGRIEST INDEPENDENT BLACK FILMMAKER

By William X Lee

Book Overview

Independent Black filmmaker William Lee, the creator of the cult classic Treasure of the Ninja, talks about 40+ years of making no-budget films that do not fit the current black film stereotypes. Lee gives readers an inside look at the myth of "black films don't sell". In addition, Lee gives real-life practical advice on pre-production, script writing, handling actors, and the all-important distribution gauntlet. Lee also recalls issues of race and stature that stall many black filmmakers and their careers. More importantly, he talks about how black filmmakers are often their own worst enemies.
