You can find that quote in Points of Resistance: Women, Power Politics in the New York Avant-Garde Cinema by Lauren Rabinovitz. You can view the quote in the text of the book here: http://books.google.com/books?id=fymPjM1c6E0Cpg=PA49dq=%22hollywood+has+been+a+major+obstacle+to+the+definition+and+development+of+motion+pictures+as+a+creative+fine-art+form.%22+maya+derenhl=enei=nWeNToVTiKixAuCFkKsBsa=Xoi=book_resultct=resultresnum=1ved=0CC0Q6AEwAA#v=onepageq=%22hollywood%20has%20been%20a%20major%20obstacle%20to%20the%20definition%20and%20development%20of%20motion%20pictures%20as%20a%20creative%20fine-art%20form.%22%20maya%20derenf=false The quote is footnoted, but it seems the page with notes is excluded in the preview. But you can go find that book and look up the original source of the quote now. Hope that helps!

Re: [Frameworks] Forbes editorial about Kodak
It's OK, I always wear a flame-retardant vest while on the Internet. ;) BTW, as I said before, I'm not a hater. I just think critically about technology. Cases in point: I don't have a smartphone. I still have my collection of vinyl records. And I'm still using the same email program, Eudora, that I used back in the 1990s during the first round of Flameworks posts that forced me off the list. And why do I cling to these old ways? Not because they're old, not because I resist change, but because I have evaluated my needs and decided that these older technologies are better for me. New is not necessarily good, and old is not necessarily good, either. But in the case of celluloid film, very soon it will be a moot point, because you won't be able to buy it for love or money. -- Aaron At 10/5/2011, you wrote: The FU was pretty weak in my mind.
