At the Foot of the Rainbow
In rural Indiana in the 1800s, Dannie Mcnoun spends his days farming, fishing, and muskrat trapping with his best friend and neighbor, Jimmy Malone. Fifteen years ago Dannie had asked Jimmy to talk Mary into marrying Dannie. Instead, Mary married Jimmy. Dannie has also noticed that Jimmy's drinking is getting out of control. Indiana classical author Gene Stratton-Porter's tale is filled with an exciting fishing contest, a wild goose chase to make fun of a city-boy, and the awkward tension between Dannie, Mary, and Jimmy.

Dan was born and raised in northern Indiana. He went to Huntington College where he earned his B.A. in Communications. He then went to IPFW to earn a teaching license, and then a Master's degree in teaching. He loves everything with film and has great aspirations.
I wanted to show a story about a strong friendship and all the things it can endure. Jimmy and Dannie fall in love with the same woman and Jimmy marries her. They are next door neighbors and work the farms together in 1800s Indiana. Jimmy's drinking hurts their friendship, Jimmy's treatment of Mary hurts their friendship, but Dannie stays loyal to him. What will it take for Dannie to see he has been taken advantage of?
