It's time for another special interview episode of Out of Touchstone, as Mike had the great thrill to chat with writer/director Ron Shelton! In addition to being responsible for some of the best sports movies of the last few decades, Ron also directed two features for Touchstone Pictures: BLAZE (1989) and PLAY IT TO THE BONE (2000), and shared stories about the casting and production of both films. We also talked about his upbringing in California, his minor league baseball career, and his lengthy time in Hollywood - some of which is detailed in "The Church of Baseball", his wonderful new book about his approach to the craft of screenwriting and the making of arguably his most famous film (1988's BULL DURHAM). Lastly, Ron expressed his thoughts on the state of the film industry in the 21st century, and touched on the projects he's working on that will hopefully be coming to both the big and small screen very soon.
