Down and Dirty Pictures: Miramax, Sundance, and the Rise of Independent Film by Peter Biskind
4.0
A deep, deep dive into the indie scene in the 80s and 90s. Fascinating stuff, especially the culture around Miramax and the Weinsteins. Published in 2004, long before Ronan Farrow blew the lid off Harvey's numerous sequel assaults, it's still weird that there isn't even a hint that it was going on. It's conspicuous in its absence, given the level of detail the rest of his behaviour gets.
I'd be interested in an updated edition that catches up with the major players and where they are now, for sure!
