Some sort of local production. I recognized Glen Braden, an old friend from my old days at SDC/Branson in one of the little scenes. Glen has played a Baldknobber, Wash Gibbs, and Old Matt at the Shepherd of the Hills play for many, many years now. I didn't recognize anyone else in the trailer, but my guess is that other cast members are other SDC, Shepherd of the Hills, and music show folk, plus some Missouri State and C of O students. It looks like it will be well done, for what it is. I'd watch it.

I am really excited for this to come out. While I understand its not a blockbuster it should still be super good. I heart the bald knobber history. Will it be in the local theaters??

[Gilligan]

It looks interesting!  Trams is right - not a blockbuster, but I would pay to see it.

I like those kinds of locally made, low budget movies. My daughter (23) has gotten into that with her new friends in New Hampshire. She started out doing hair and makeup and helping with lighting. She got noticed for her work ethic and wound up with one credited role so far, and is scheduled for another, by a different producer. Plus, she's almost guaranteed a paying job doing makeup for summer stock theater.

Not bad for five months!

Unfortunately, no.

There is a "Baldknobber Trailer" thread here at SDCfans that you can view the trailer to this. I only saw one person in the viewing of the trailer that I remember from the old days in Branson...Glenn Braden...who has played Wash Gibbs and Old Matt at the Shepherd of the Hills. However, it appears many local residents are taking part in some capacity. Other than Glenn, I don't recognize any names associated with it. Probably a few SDC folk, Sh. of the Hills folk, and others such as people from College of the Ozarks, Missouri State/Springfield, and some of the music shows. Looks interesting, and I'd watch it if I could.

Baldknobber & Ozark Movie thread topics merged!

The whole Baldknobbers story is very interesting. I think Harold Bell Wright did it best, but there's always a new generation to learn our history, the good and the bad.

Sheperd of the Hills has been made into a movie 4 times. I would love to see a fifth, especially since the show closed. The story needs some redemption after that travesty of a movie with John Wayne in it, I mean, I love the Duke, but whoever gutted the story and changed pretty much every premise in it outta be horse-whipped.
