The United Artists Story (2000-2022) (81 movies items)"Released on May 5, 2006 A co-production with Sony Pictures Classics. Produced in association with Mr. Mudd. "
DVD Pickups Winter/Spring 2023 (16 movies items)"I'm a big fan of Terry Zwigoff and this is one movie of his I never got the chance to see. The Goodwill had a huge bin of 2/$1 DVDs so I grabbed this and Fatal Contact below."

Basically, I guess that the makers tried to play around with the idea that Art schools are in fact pretty much like any other schools, with exactly the same clichés, except that what you learn in Art school might be even more meaningless.
