Molly

I understand the want of freedom. ~Molly Pitcher

We are a diverse group with one goal

The Oneida Native Americans, African Americans and Europeans joined forces in the fight for freedom. Like the Revolutionaries, our team is a diverse group of people who believe in equality and freedom. Our story is based on the true story of Molly Pitcher.

As a former newspaper woman, I believed a good story needed three things: It had to be something people wanted to read, it had to sell newspapers, and a good story has to earn awards. As I researched Molly’s story, I knew I had found those key ingredients to success!

The Molly script was an immediate gem. The first positive review came in from the Blacklist. "This script could find its way towards a powerhouse Hollywood female that would bring the historical character to life".

It’s been a long road since our small team formed at Sundance when that review came in.

People with different skill sets, actors, filmmakers, and business people, have come together. The script has been a quarterfinalist in the Nichol, and received accolades in the Austin Film Festival, Writers Lab, and more. It’s earned a place in a Sundance Producer’s Workshop, and received a year mentorship at LA Women in Film. Our first fundraiser at Fort Mifflin was supported by New York Women in Film and Television NYWIFT

We are a diverse group with one thing in common. We believe in the empowerment of people. Molly’s story is celebrated annually at Fort Dix, at the Monmouth Battlefield, and other places. Her story lives!

Huzzah!
