Log Line: It's the 9th inning of a high-stakes baseball game. The batter faces his worst adversary. The Old West. Jonathan C. Edwards confronts the nightmares of his past. Their destiny is about to be decided. Director's Statement: "The Showdown" brings together two aspects that are uniquely American, Baseball and the Old West. It is a short action/drama film, about the confrontation between a pitcher and batter in the bottom of the ninth inning of a one-run baseball game, juxtaposed against a deadly duel between two gunfighters in the Old West. This is a story about duels and duality. About loss and redemption; and how history can repeat itself...HIGH-RES VIDEOS:________________________________You can view the Official Trailer for THE SHOWDOWN in high resolution here: And here's the link for the high resolution Teaser:OFFICIAL WEBSITE:______________________________ For additional info about the filmmakers, production notes, trailers, behind the scenes and much more, please visit our official website: THE SHOWDOWN OFFICIAL WEBSITETHE CAST:______________________________________
