The TRUTH?
I am the first to admit that there are MANY "truths" involving the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald. But unless you've STUDIED that incident IN DETAIL, how can the average person claim to really KNOW?
My film will be as truthful as I can POSSIBLY make it. I challenge ANYONE to discover the so-called "smoking gun" that will SOLVE this mystery; in fact, Scott, while you're at it, tell me EXACTLY HOW the TITANIC sank too!
Once again, I'm confronted by the so-called "serious historian" whose idea of "facts" exists only in what they THINK they know. I can assure you that the FITZGERALD disaster as presented thusfar is NOT COMPLETE! There is FAR more to this story than what's been printed OR speculated.
Until then, why don't you give the film a chance? We're not out to reinvent the wheel... we just want the rest of the World to know that she existed, she sank, and she took the lives of 29 GOOD, HARD-WORKING men. What's wrong with that?
