Crazy Enough to Win
This hour-long documentary follows former MLB pitcher Gerald Smiley as he describes his extraordinary journey from a difficult and dangerous upbringing to the highest level of professional baseball.
Gerald faced circumstances that could have easily derailed his future, including abuse and numerous near-death experiences.
Crazy Enough to Win is a story about adversity, perseverance, and the belief that sometimes you have to be crazy enough to chase a dream that everyone else thinks is impossible.
Over the span of 8+ months, my close friend Logan Jones and I made a full-length documentary during our senior year of high school following our men's basketball team as they fought to win it all.
Legacy 2: Pursuit of Greatness follows Tommy Brennan & Jack Gilday's Legacy
(2021), which told the story of Olympia High School's historical basketball season in 2020.
Coach John Kiley gave us full access to the inner workings of the team, and we documented everything. The highs and the lows, the wins and the losses, the comradery and relationships -- the charm of high school basketball.
