            Robert Rodriguiz made the original EL MARIACHI for $7,000.
Budget limitations are a nasty business, for sure, but any truly talented
filmmaker can get over this hurdle. 
     The first thing you do in making a film is write it. The second thing
you do is CAST IT appropriately. Nothing more important than writing and
acting.
     Being avant-garde is all well and good. If you want to communicate to
a very limited, pretentious element of the "audience." Remember, though,
that music videos are for MTV. 
     Films have stories. TLTCTC did not. I LOVE The Lady's music and her
soulful performances in song. That is why the ONLY part of her "film" that
worked for me was Kate simply sitting beside a candle and singing "And So
Is Love."  Beautiful!
