Patrick Creadon- The Loyola Project and the Importance of Documentary Films

American filmmaker Patrick Creadon who is primarily known for his work in documentaries. His first film, Wordplay, profiled New York Times crossword editor Will Shortz and premiered at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival. Then in 2016, Patrick directed ESPN" s 30 for 30 film, "Catholics vs. Convicts," about the October 15, 1988, Notre Dame-Miami football game. In this episode, we discuss Patrick's latest film, "The Loyola Project," about the historic 1963 Loyola Ramblers men's basketball national championship team and the racial barriers they faced and overcame on their incredible journey. I loved how Patricks weaves together actual footage and modern-day interviews to tell this captivating story, which continues to inspire the fight for equality.
