“Movie audiences are being told that streaming has made the entire history of cinema
available for a simple subscription fee... This is not true.” So reads the opening line of
the Missing Movies manifesto. This invaluable organization, started by a group of
independent filmmakers who experienced their own works getting buried, is dedicated
to digging up and restoring lost gems from the ’80s, ’90s, and into the 21st century. Two
founders of the organization—writer-director Nancy Savoca (Dogfight, Household
Saints) and writer-producer Richard Guay (Household Saints, Ghost Dog: The Way of the
Samurai)—talk about how movies disappear, and the detective work it takes to find
them. ~OO
