Legacy
The film's most noteworthy impact came when Secter's nephew Joel, who had not been in close contact with his uncle in many years and did not know that his uncle had directed films at all, unwittingly rented the film from a video store in the 1990s.[1] Himself an aspiring filmmaker, he contacted his uncle, and the two collaborated as producers on the 1999 sex comedy film Cyberdorm, although the film was not successful.[1] With even Secter's most historically significant film, Winter Kept Us Warm, nearly forgotten by the early 2000s, the two then collaborated on the 2005 documentary film The Best of Secter and the Rest of Secter, which explored Secter's career from his early success with Winter Kept Us Warm through his decision to abandon filmmaking after Feelin' Up.[1]
