I ran into a few Fair Use complications of my own in recent times but luckily stumbled upon a really great book that has helped me to no end.
Clearance & Copyright by Michael Donaldson. http://www.donaldsoncallif.com/.
This is a fantastic book for the indie filmmaker to have in their collection. I doubt there can be a more reliable and comprehensive source of information on this stuff. The recent 4th edition even allows for downloading contracts that can be edited and examples of various other forms.
Just amazing.
