So am I.

Thanks for posting this. I saw this posted somewhere else, and wanted to watch it, but didn't have the time. Then I forgot about it until now.

Looks pretty interesting. I'll be sure to catch it when it's released.

Thank you for posting the video, Cort!

I ended up spending a few hours on here last night watching videos... in fact it inspired me to go out & take the photos I took today! It seems that I'm always learning more & more about the area thanks to you & your great wealth of knowledge... such an inspiration!

(I'd rep ya if I could... LOL)

^Awh, thank you! I love learning more about our area too. I really enjoy your pics!

I've never seen this before, its quite sad that the only time our area hits the news is when another company closes down or more jobs are lost. this used to be such a nice area, too. anyone have a clue when the production is going to be released? I'd love to watch it. thanks

anyone have a clue when the production is going to be released? at the end of the video it said winter 2009. sadly, the last thing the "movement" needs is to think of themselves as movie stars although it does keep them looking busy.

Our goal for the premiere is late September, downtown--we've moved up the schedule a bit. We plan to work with the DeYor for the showing.

Our mission is not to make anyone a "movie star" but to reach people about the valley's story in a new way.

A more developed teaser-trailer will be out in the next couple weeks, stay tuned.

First of all, Thank You CortlandGirl, for posting the link!!! It actually looks like a balanced, realistic depiction of our area. That one shot from Millcreek Park tells me that this will be a documentary that shows just how nice Youngstown can be and is, despite the problems. Few cities have a park as beautiful as Millcreek. Keep us posted, Kevin, on the premiere of this at the DeYor!!
