Reviews
Christine Bode:
This volume by Irish author and Film Studies lecturer / education consultant Wayne Byrne is an extremely well-written, intelligent, enthralling addition to the Directors’ Cuts series published by Wallflower Press and a must-read for any cineaste or film student... Byrne’s book is an interesting in-depth look at all of DiCillo’s eight independent films (seven of which premiered at Sundance) the agony and the ecstasy of birthing them, as well as an honest, insider’s view into the independent film industry and the machinations of the Hollywood system.

The book now functions not only as a portrait of a life in the pictures, but as a frank examination of several periods of American cinema and the attendant complexities of its industry.
Sarah Sitwell, University of Utah:
A candid and behind-the-scenes look at DiCillo's Hollywood, independent, fictional, and documentary filmmaking...essential reading for anyone who is interested in the intricacies of on-location film production, film festivals, distribution practices, acting, and performance.
