The story of early boxing, from its inception to its turn-of-century days. It was a time of injustice and turmoil, but also a time when boxing was a cultural phenomenon. And Sam Langford was one of its storied yet forgotten fighters.
"Forgotten: The Sam Langford Story" is just a prelude to a series of boxing documentaries—think Ken Burns's "Baseball" (1994). Called 'The Forgotten Series', it will illustrate the lives of several other fighters lost to the shadows of time, while also highlighting their respective eras in the sport. More on this soon!
Steve Spiro's film script on the life of Sam Langford—based on Clay Moyle's acclaimed book—is ready for the big and small screen. It covers Langford's epic journey, from his days as a young man in Nova Scotia, to Boston, to the heights of fame and to the four corners of the world.
As we partner with groups like the World Boxing Council (WBC), we seek other production companies, distributors and producers to bring boxing's history to life in both scripted and non-scripted form. Have an idea? Contact us.
