"In the '80s, I can't say that Amy and I were aware of an independent film community. We could only get a certain amount of money for our pictures, which made them low budget movies, but they were distributed through studios"
- Griffin Dunne
About this Quote
This quote by Griffin Dunne speaks to the lack of an independent movie neighborhood in the 1980s.

In spite of this, they were still able to get their films dispersed through studios. This recommends that the independent movie community was not as developed in the 1980s as it is today, which the only method to get movies distributed was through the significant studios.
