A full length feature film could soon be in the works for a Thunder Bay
hockey legend. A group headed by another local man Dave Ferguson has
finished shooting a 15 minute short film in Saskatchewan and hopes to
turn it into a major motion picture. Ferguson says the movie is about
Bill "Goldie" Goldthorpe, who was the inspiration for the infamous
character Ogie Oglethorpe from the 1977 hit movie Slap Shot. Ferguson
says he met with Goldie last year after hearing his story thinks a movie
about Goldthorpe is long overdue.
