"  Published in the October 2013 80th Anniversary issue Mark and Jay Duplass&amp;#039;s films Cyrus and Jeff, Who Lives at Home cost about $7 million \u2014 in anyone else&amp;#039;s hands the budget would have been at least $25 million. The Duplasses&amp;#039; cut-cost, minimal-studio-supervision system depends on their creative use of cheap technology, healthy DVD sales, and the willingness of actors like Jason Segel, Ed Helms, and Susan Sarandon to work for a fraction of their regular pay. When no less than Steven Spielberg and George Lucas are prophesying the &amp;quot;implosion&amp;quot; of the film industry, being able to guarantee that a movie will not lose money makes you a valuable commodity. The Duplass brothers have been smart enough to convert that into autonomy.  In 2014, the Duplasses will join low-budget auteurs Louis C.K. and Lena Dunham on TV with their HBO series Togetherness.
