Following up on last week's celebration of the 2000 film "Up Against Amanda" we are joined by the film's writer, director and editor Michael Rissi and its star Justine Priestley to discuss their film and their careers in cinema.

Written, Directed & Edited by Michael Rissi. Starring Justine Priestly, David DeWitt, Karen Grosso, Chuck Williams, Daniel Roebuck, Skippy McGriff & Reggie Bannister

How is the world wrong about Michael Rissi & Justine Priestley

From Andras: It's tempting to think the people who get famous in the film industry are its greatest talents but anyone who delves deeply into a study of its history quickly realizes that Hollywood is not always hospitable to its best (like Michael Rissi) or its brightest (like Justine Priestley) thus it is an incredibly lucky thing when film artists who are not embraced by corporate Hollywood find a way to make an independent film that, although it may have gone unnoticed at the time, finds its audience in ways its creators could never have imagined.
