The trailer for IMTA alum Brandon Routh's new feature film Crooked Arrows is out!  Brandon plays the lead character Joe Logan.  According to wearemoviegeeks.com ,"The film centers on coach Joe Logan, who reluctantly leads a Native American high school team on their unlikely journey to the state lacrosse championship game against their prep school rivals.  Along the way, Joe and the team rediscover their connection to the spiritual tradition of the ancient sport of lacrosse.  Set in the diverse worlds of modern Native American culture and prep school lacrosse, Crooked Arrows offers moviegoers a new twist on a classic underdog sports story." Crooked Arrows received a standing ovation at a sneak preview recently.
