Plan 9 from Syracuse, Chasing a Dream

I've got to give a shout to Ryan Dacko, our very own local Syracuse documentary filmmaker/hometown boy, who is running (yes, running) from Syracuse to Hollywood in the hopes of securing a meeting with an unmentioned Hollywood producer. He is also making a documentary about his run across the country. He calls it "Plan 9." Any Ed Wood fan will recognize the reference.

Ryan is chasing his dream, but I think the chase is just as interesting as the dream he has of making it big and getting a movie deal. I'm hooked on reading about his daily mileage (a marathon plus), aches and pains, and passage through small towns and weather systems. Ryan, keep running!

You can read his blog.
