April's Director Spotlight: Alan Smithee

Perhaps the most misunderstood man in Hollywood is Alan Smithee. Along with being misunderstood, he is also the most notorious man ever to work as a filmmaker. His films are often misjudged and are given poor reviews right from the start. No one seems to take his work seriously anymore, he has become a parody unto himself. Not even Ed Wood received such maligned reviews in his lifetime. So join me this month as we dissect, discuss, and pay tribute to this misunderstood genius.
