Lightning in a Bottle. Finance is not easy to come by when a film is budgeted at$100m and the box-office results are impossible to predict - big-name vehicles such as End of Days flopped while the ideas of children such as Shrek exceeded all expectations. Contributions in the second of a three-part look inside the US film industry come from director Oliver Stone , actors Pierce Brosnan and Ben Stiller and writer Akiva Goldsman , Oscar winner with A Beautiful Mind. Narrated by Mariella Frostrup.
