REELNEWS:An interesting scheme is afoot aimed at thanking the general public for attending movies and at promoting the importance of copyright.

The "You Make the Movies" campaign begins with five amusing trailers by Steve Bendelack, director of The League of Gentlemen, that pay homage to Lord of the Rings, Life of Brian, Jaws, The Sixth Senseand Jerry Maguire.

If you want to see the shorts then go to youmakethemovies.ie or, better still, attend your local cinema with hope in your heart.
