Love Never Was the Issue- Episode Three: The Heart of the Matter is a motion picture that took 10 years to make. Independent moving making is filled with challenges. From finding the right talent, to securing shooting locations, to scheduling production times, to modifying the script on the fly, making movies requires a lot faith and determination.
Behind The Movie was written in an attempt to reconcile the issues S. A. Miller had to deal with over the last 10 years. Some good decisions were made, and some not-so-good decisions were made along the journey, but in the end, the movie has more good scenes than not-so-good scenes, and that’s what moviemakers shoots for.
