Once again, independent films are making a big splash at the Academy Awards. But some aren't exactly the low-budget, off-beat fare you'd expect from an "indy". We'll look at the blurring definition of what it means to be "independent" and how this category of film is shaping the industry overall. Laura's guest are Garen Daly, film commentator and Artistic Director of the Dedham Community Theatre in Dedham, Massachusetts living in Gilmanton, NH and Larry Benaquist, Chair of Film Studies at Keene State College.
