Exciting news! The screenplay UNTIL THE END OF THE NINTH is a semi-finalist in the Seattle International Film Festival, and is one of only ten scripts to be recognized! We'll be headed to Seattle for events during the last week of the festival, which runs from May 18th through June 11th. I'm excited not just because of the success, but also because this story is such a compelling one, about great men who played good baseball, but who tragically died in a bus crash in 1946, before their time. It was the season just after World War II. Nine of the 16 men on the bus died, and 8 of the 9 had served in the War. I chose to tell the story as if their men's spirits could have lived on after the crash, and imagined what that may have looked like. Would they have gotten help from the other side? I hope that is true. I'm grateful that SIFF sees the merits of this story.
