PETE IRELAND tales from the OPENING ACT. Opinions, analysis and random musings from an independent filmmaker. Thursday, October 09, 2014. ON SUPPORTING AN INDUSTRY. What does it mean to support an industry? What is an industry anyway? Buzz terms are thrown around like 'the film industry', 'the entertainment industry', and 'the dream factory'. Like secret societies that operate in the shadows. Why do industries need support? Is it a purely economic argument? What is an industry? People like you and I.
