    What a thrill!

    We watched this movie at Docutah and it was an absolute joyride. The live band was awesome too. I wish I could stream this film somewhere to show my friends and neighbors. Seeing all the different musicians was really cool and hearing the backstories of them all was really interesting. I highly recommend giving this movie a chance if you ever get the chance to. It got me into to listening to blues music once in a while too, such a fascinating history to the music and the songs tell so many stories. I would love to see this movie on amazon or netflix or some kind of streaming service like that.

    This film will have you moving in your seat!!!

    Watched the premiere on November 1 with my wife and we loved it!! Into The Fire has just the right amount of heart, soul, and history. Let's face it; the blues is a dying genre, but Into The Fire just might be the fuel to keep the blues burning in our hearts for years to come. I am proud to have helped on this film with so many talented filmmakers and such a phenomenal cast. I didn't travel to Memphis with everyone, but I know that those who went - loved the experience.
