Well Director Michael Miner co-writer of Robocop made a movie almost 2 years ago called "Book of Stars" and the somewhat evil Hollywood did not want to distribute it. Here's a short review of the film set for DVD on 9/5.

"This film tracks the two archtypes of female emotion and sexuality, the
Madonna and the whore, in the form of two sisters. Mary Stuart Masterson has given up on life and prostitutes herself for drugs and oblivion. Jena Malone is on the cusp of womanhood, but because of lingering cystic fibrosis, she will never grow into adulthood. And in her attempt to save her sister from slow suicide, she imagines a romantic world peopled by magical charaters, some of whom actually enter the sisters' lives, to change them forever. This film is reminiscent of the work of the Polish director, Kieslowski, who attempted to track the invisible hand of fate, as it touched his character's lives. I highly reccomend it to anyone who has lost a loved one or found new meaning in life, while on the brink of destruction."
