Russell Brand (& Lara Bingle) - Full Interview on 'The Project' (16/10/2015)
Maclain Way and Chapman Way, directors of the new documentary film "The Battered Bastards of Baseball," talks about the search for archival footage. The news stations archives consisted mostly of highlights from Portland Mavericks games. While interviewing Todd Field for the film, he told them that he had a reel of 16mm news footage shot by a cinematographer named Don Gronquist, who had been hired by Bing Russell to shoot footage of the Portland Mavericks. Chapman Way found the footage from the 1977 Championship Game while cleaning his grandmother's garage.
The last time she was here, she was just about ready to pop! Now she has an adorable little boy named Bing, and a hilarious story about her mother, Goldie Hawn, at the birth.
