Michael Jacobs, who directed the unique story of Pentecostal pastor Richard Gazowsky in Audience of One (review), has a new web series that looks very promising. American Dreamers focuses on a different individual each week, telling stories about eccentric or unusual pursuits. I’ve embedded the first episode below, about Jim Bishop, who’s been building a castle single-handedly in Beulah, Colorado for almost 40 years. I think you’ll agree that Jacobs has a gift for finding interesting stories and telling them well. The series runs for ten episodes, with new episodes released each Wednesday.
