This Business of Film explores all the dimensions of film as a business -- development, financing, production and distribution -- It tells the story of the business from the "inside," drawing on the experiences of Stephen Greenwald and other industry leaders. The book will be constructed around a number of themes that will bring the past, present and future together in a way that will enable readers to understand the underlying dynamics and forces that have shaped -- and will continue to shape -- film as a business. They can use that understanding to discern the future direction of the industry-- the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
