John Pearce sits down with Dan Hertzog, Director, and Lower Macungie Historical Society President Sarajane Williams, to explore the locally-produced film 'The Fries Rebellion.' They talk about the lesser known moment in U.S. and Lehigh Valley history and how the rebellion was sparked.
Dan and Sarajane talk about the process of planning and creating the movie, including the casting process with local actors, finding a plot for the movie, and staying as authentic as possible.
