(Film idea from a Photo by David Goodwin)

In popular culture, 15 minutes of fame refers to a sudden state of celebrity that is believed unlikely to continue long enough
to affect the new celebrity 's life for the better. The expression is a paraphrase of Andy Warhol 's statements, in 1968 that

"In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes."

and in 1979...my prediction from the sixties finally came true: "In the future everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes."

Warhol's statement was based in his interest in fame and famous people. His view of the media was that they could enable
any person to become famous. The rise of real life television shows has given new meaning to Warhol's "15 minutes" quote.
