The Bookshelf Conversations: Nick Davis

October 11, 2021

Harkening back to the review I posted about Once Upon a Time In Queens, I was thrilled to be able to get the director of the four-part 30-for-30 sports doc series from ESPN. And since I did put up that entry, this intro will be relatively brief.

Nick Davis — and profound apologies for calling him Nick Adams at one point — did a marvelous job of putting together a story that could have been very cookie-cutter in its presentation. (Also apologies for the quality of the video. Kind of ironic, though, having difficulties while interviewing a filmmaker.)

For those who didn’t have the opportunity (or good sense) to DVR the program, there’s good news: the companion book is just about as entertaining.

I do find it kind of sad, however, that a whole generation of Mets fans haven’t experienced the joy and excitement of that amazin’ season.
