Some Press For The Force Among Us

Posted By Mike on June 28, 2009



Cris and Cortney Macht's The Force Among Us, along with our friend John Tenuto and others, are getting a bit of press from the Evanston Review. Check out the excerpt below and click here for the full article.


"The film was made by brother-and-sister team Cris and Cortney Macht after Cris fell into a funk about the end of the "Star Wars" movie franchise in 2006. It was Cortney's idea to make a fan movie, but it grew into a full blown documentary that took seven months to shoot.

Some of that filming was at the College of Lake County, and includes sociology professor and local resident John Tenuto and students Chris Hamilton and Grant Ragain.

Tenuto, 40, who often incorporates science fiction into his classes (he's taught Introduction to Sociology: Star Wars Edition and The Sociology of Star Trek), was approached by the Machts after they had learned of a study he had done that tears down common stereotypes of "Star Wars" and "Star Trek" fans as nerds who are mostly socially awkward males who have never kissed a girl and who live in their parents' basements well into their adult years."



Thanks to our friend Tom D. for the link!
