This multilayered pseudo-documentary from director Frank Gallagher focuses on Tom Paulson, an aspiring filmmaker desperate to get his movie financed--and willing to put up with almost anything to do so.

Reviews for They Shoot Movies, Don't They?
... Tom Paulson was ultimately done in by his fear of failure and success (and a clever script for the making of a film called Mirage.)
I can only recommend Movies for those who have a desire to fund independent films.
This is not a pretty picture of Hollywood at all, and this, not the hook of the hoax, is why we keep watching.
