Do you ever get a story idea that overwhelms your thought processes?
I came across a story today that is sucking up all my processing power. It would be a story that I would turn into a documentary.
Basically, an Irish Priest named Hugh O'Flaherty was stationed in the Vatican during WWII and he managed to save over 6500 POWs and Jews from the authorities. There was a book written about him called the Vatican Pimpernel. There was a movie about him starring Gregory Peck called "The Scarlet and the Black" But at this time, I think his name is largely forgotten. It reminds me a lot of Oskar Schindler. But there are so many weird twists to the O'Flaherty story.
I will keep you posted about the film fever.
