Ouch, David Mamet

To all film school grads:

"And as for the graduate school, so for the undergraduate and the various limitless seminars in filmmaking dotting our coasts and increasingly making inroads upon the hinterland.

They may be a rest stop for the insufficiently aggressive (those folks will find their rest expanded into a lifetime career), they may be a film club for those who cannot take their entertainment straight, they may be a boot camp for those desirous of becoming efficient at submission, or they may be a pen to hold and fleece the children of the privileged. But I think perhaps they have little to do with the actual making of movies."

Thanks, Mamet.
