Streaming video - 2014

Behind the Screens explores the trend toward "hypercommercialism" in Hollywood film: product placement, tie-ins, merchandising, and cross-promotions. The film mixes clips from popular Hollywood films with expert commentary to show how movies have become vehicles for the ulterior marketing and advertising motives of studios and their owners. Featuring Oscar-nominated screenwriter Jeremy Pikser; Mark Crispin Miller; Susan Douglas; Robert McChesney, and others.
