|
| "Rooters: The Birth of Red Sox Nation" is the story of Boston fans; from their "birth" as the 200 "Roxbury Rooters" in 1897 to their transformation into millions known today as RED SOX NATION. Through rare images and film the saga is told by Boston baseball legends like Johnny Pesky and Peter Gammons, historians, Red Sox players and officials, everyday fans and the Red Sox Nation members descended from the original "Rooters". Super-Fans like "Nuf Ced","Honey-Fitz" and the "Queen of Fenway Park" come to life as the film shows how the foundation was laid for today's Fenway Faithful. Linking past to present, "Rooters" is the heartwarming tale of how generations of fans have passed on their love for the Red Sox like a family heirloom. This two-volume DVD follows the story from "The Birth of Red Sox Nation" Vol. 1, to the modern day phenomenon of how "Red Sox Nation Lives" Vol. 2.

Movies:"Rooters: Birth of The Baseball Fan" Directed by : Ian McFarland &; Anthony Moreschi Executive Producer: Perter J. Nash. "Rooters: Birth of the Baseball Fan" is the compelling documentary portrait of the pioneering baseball fans known as the Royal Rooters from the Roxbury section of Boston, Massachusetts who, through their dedication and support of local baseball clubs in the late nineteenth century, sparked a national craze that helped create our modern day sports fan culture. Originally sparked by the passion of 250 fanatics led by JFK’s grandfather, Honey Fitz Fitzgerald, and barkeep Michael Nuf Ced McGreevy, the city of Boston has cultivated a rich history of loyal baseball fans that have passed their undying support for their home teams along to each new generation like a family heirloom. Rooters presents commentary from baseball historians like John Thorn, Peter Gammons, Glenn Stout and Richard Johnson, as well as insider reminiscences from Red Sox legends like Johnny Pesky and even grandchildren of the original Royal Rooters who christened Fenway Park way back in 1912. Rooters ties together the past and present, illustrating the similarities of the original rooters singing their fight song Tessie at the first World Series in 1903 to Red Sox Nation embracing a remake of the fight song in 2004 as Boston won its first world title in 86 years. Chronicling the life and times of the second generation Irish of Boston’s South End, the film expresses how important Boston was at the turn of the century as a center of the sporting, gambling and political worlds. The viewer can step back into the past and experience what it was like to rub elbows with baseball hall of famors, back room political bosses and underworld connected odds makers. Throughout the 20th century Boston has led the way, cheered on by the likes of pioneering fans like Nuf Ced McGreevy, the Royal Rooter patriarch; Lib Dooley, the Queen of Fenway Park; and Fenway fixture, Screaming Lollie Hopkins. Utilizing rare photographs and captivating moving images, the film captures the essence of what it meant years ago to be a Royal Rooter, and what it means today to be a member of the behemoth now known as Red Sox Nation. As important for presenting historians who paint vivid pictures that point to the genesis of American baseball fandom in Boston, Rooters truly delivers in its emotional interviews of fourth and fifth generation Royal Rooters who carry the torch and tradition into the 21st century. The film is in post production and will be coming out soon. Check back here for updates. |
