The sad thing about indie films...


You can never find them in a theater or online. Where in the hell is this movie?

By now, it's likely available on DVD.

Unless you live in a city that has theaters (or A theater, even) that regularly shows indie-type movies, you're out of luck. Some indie movies get only what's known as a "limited release," which generally means it's only going to play cities like NYC, LA, San Francisco, Chicago, etc.

And as good as it was, Afternoon Delight played for only two weeks (maybe 3) here in Chicago.

Depending on what cable provider you have, indes are often "On Demand." That's where I found 'Afternoon Delight.'

I hope that you were able to find it - I just finished watching it and it was truly one of the best films I have seen in quite a while.

I found it, thanks. Some users posted direct links, but IMDB deleted those.

Just go to Starz.

The sad thing about Indie films is that for the great majority they lack character development, have too many plot holes, and the ending leaves the viewer wondering what they just watched. That's why you don't see them picked up by major distributors and therefore not widely viewed. Simply put, the vast majority of people just don't like them because they tend to show a sometimes unrealistic slice of life, unresolved issues, and a contempt towards providing a clear ending. People just don't like feeling they got ripped-off for the price of their ticket when they leave the theater and the theater owners know that.
