Quote:
"Meanwhile, [Joyce] Wieland was taking a detour from art to film making, in the biggest (and most bitter) effort of her career—The Far Shore [...]. 'I'll never make another film,' she says now. 'When I hear somebody I know say they want to do one, I laugh.' After six years of writing, revising, fund-raising, hiring, firing, and exhausting bickering and bargaining, Wieland and partner Judy Steed were forced to admit defeat. After a brief opening and closing the $450,000 film never recouped its losses."
