Back to Reality: Assessing the Assets
I have been reviewing my assets the past few days. I am looking at supports materials. The film is about so much more than Keehan/Dante. The world of martial arts is vast and varied, the history, when not stilted can become glorious. The sum total of John Keehan’s life is not the Dragon Wars, not […]
I am making a movie, I am not taking sides…
Smooth sailing and the film moves forward… The stories of Count Dante is really not about any of the numerous parties involved. Yet they are all part of the story for better or for worse. I am talking to whoever I feel I need to in pursuit of the story. It is not up to […]

I deleted a post
I have removed my post that drew all of the comments. Attention was attracted, whatever the situation is may not be resolved but I feel like I have come to some conclusions. I am not going to allow this to dominate my blog. Is this hype to sell the film. I wish it it was. […]
I do not need this footage or this hassle.
I have mentioned no names and I have have not made any accusations against anyone. I have no idea who is doing what. I just want it to stop. All I am saying is this is not worth me having this footage. I don’t know who called anyone. All I want is for it to […]

My associate Oscar Sharpe traveled from London to Brighton on my behalf to interview Rankin. I was on the phone for […]
