It all started when…
"I'm As Mad As Hell And I'm Not Going To Take This Anymore!"
(Network is a 1976 American satirical film written by Paddy Chayefsky and directed by Sidney Lumet).
That is when I decided to start my own production company in Hollywood and to make independent films that are edgy and intellectually satisfying.
