The Movie Show Digital Extra: Talking "Faith of Angels" with writer & director Garrett Batty

It’s another MOVIE SHOW DIGITAL EXTRA--Interviews and discussions that co-hosts Andy Farnsworth & Steve Salles know our loyal listeners will love listening to, but that we unfortunately don’t have time to include in our weekly radio broadcast. 

For this Digital Extra, Andy is joined by Utah filmmaker Garrett Batty, whose latest movie “Faith of Angels” (which he wrote and directed) hits theaters starting September 12^th.  It tells the story of the search and miraculous rescue of 10-year old Joshua Dennis after he was lost in a Utah mine for five days in 1989.

Garrett, whose previous films include “Freetown”, “The Saratov Approach”, and “Out of Liberty”, talks about why he was drawn to this particular story, explains how he made his casting choices, how he involved the actual people from the story in the writing and filmmaking process, and what parts of the movie really happened and which parts were changed.

ADVISORY: Some parts of the discussion could be considered spoilers for moments in the movie.
