Independent films are films that are made outside of major studios like 20th Century Fox and Warner Brothers. Some independent films are only shown in a select number of theaters. Many people believe that independent films are more creative and quirky than major films because they are not mass- marketed so they are not made for a specific audience. Also, independent films have a much smaller production budget than films from a major studio.
