Field of Honor

Benjamin Cook, a newspaper editor in 18th century Charleston, SC (known then as Charles Towne), becomes angered at the arrival of a man named Joseph Langley in the colony. Langley is a renowned duelist who goes from colony to colony to challenge those to duel him to fight for their honor. Langley’s next target becomes Benjamin after he offends him at a party. Langley demands a duel so that Benjamin can fight for his honor. Benjamin doesn’t believe there is any honor in murdering another and is soon faced with protecting the people he cares about or maintaining his ideals.

Director / Co-Writer

Field of Honor was inspired by an inner struggle I dealt with while at film school. That inner dialogue about the true meaning of honor and character became the theme that the script was built upon. At the time I was heavily influenced by Stanley Kubrick's "Barry Lindon." I was also influenced by a very chilling painting by Ilya Repin (1844–1930), “Eugene Onegin and Vladimir Lensky's Duel” 

I co-wrote the finished screenplay with my good friend Brian Calland the master mind behind Wronchi Animation.
