"All good things must come to an end. Anthony Northrup has spent the better part of the last 15-20 years immersed in the realm of the Dollar Baby—an obscure but immensely cool program created by Stephen King in the late ’70s (though if you’re reading this, you likely already know that). This final book in a monumental trilogy delivers even more of what made the first two installments so compelling. It is always fascinating to pull back the curtain on these indie projects. As a Dollar Baby filmmaker myself—and a proud contributor to this volume—I can attest to the depth of insight found here. Any King completionist needs this trilogy on their shelf alongside the master's own work. It’s a must-read for anyone wanting to explore the underground world of indie filmmaking and the challenge of bringing King's words to life. While there are countless Dollar Babies out there in the wild, Anthony did his due diligence to track down as many as possible, giving us a platform to share our art. If I may speak for us all, we are forever grateful for his dedication to the little guys."
