Description

When people think of science fiction, they generally think of mega-budget spectacles - noisy junk that slathers on the expensive visual effects to cover for the fact that the scripts are terrible.  But when filmmakers keep the budget low, it can free them up to take more chances and tell more interesting stories. So tonight MG offers up a double feature of low-budget, high concept indies that manage to keep it smart while shooting for the stars: Duncan Jones' Moon and Jake Schreier's Robot and Frank starring Frank Langella!
