We’re at the Red Stag Lodge. It’s day 2, and I’m fighting with a * cold. But I tell you something, I’m going to beat it, and we’re going to win. Let’s go boys.

Im about to go into Variety and do an interview with Josh Kandal to talk about Fields of Fuel and why we made the movie.

We went all across America.

It’s a discovery asking the question really, how can we become independent of foreign oils?

You know Greg is from New York. And writer Johnny is from New York. We really wanted to find a way to put in perspective what is at stake for America. So with Greg and Johnny aboard, we really started to craft the story around New York City and what happened Sept. 11. And how that’s affected the country since. And it’s a powerful and emotional, and a very great patriotic message.

When you see the film, you will be moved, touched, and inspired. You will cry, you will feel, and it just hits all your buttons. And You realize, what it is to be American. What it is to grow your own fuel in your own country, and what’s going on. How you want to get a biodiesel car. You want to look at your renewable energy portfolio. And it’s just magical. We feel this is a cutting edge film that hits those points.

Johnny O’Hara, tell us, what inspired you to want to work on Fields of Fuel?

I met Josh at a film festival and he showed his short Veggie van voyage. At the end of it, he gave a little talk, and I was one of many people going up there, saying, how can I help? I came on shortly after that as a writer, and DNA did a lot of the post-production. And that’s how it happened.

What was your most inspiration point working on the movie?

For me, the shoot we did in New York City, on 911, it was not just my city that got attacked. It was my neighborhood. I live right down there. And you know a lot of that footage is in the film. I always made the connection. Between, there is something going on that we got attacked by a bunch of dudes from Saudi Arabia where we get all our oil.
