One of the filmmakers of 1918 - The Film, an independent film about the Sox, contacted me:
I just finished shooting a film about Sox winning the World Series. It’s a comedy about two life-long Red Sox fans who miraculously land tickets to the World Series. Completely professional too, we shot in High Definition. We used all local guys and even used a Dunkin Donuts as a set. All the planning was done before the playoffs even started. Aswe started filming the Sox were down 3-0 to the Yankees.
It sounds like a cool story - features more authentic Sox fans than Jimmy Fallon, that’s for sure. Right now I’m a glutton for all things Sox. Unlikely to come over to the Singapore market, mind, but those of you in the New England area might want to check it out.
What does “1918” mean any more? Just another year. Flu pandemic. First World War. That sort of thing…
