“We wanted to do something that pumps out the action but is a little more cerebral, primal, and darker than your typical run of the mill action piece. Rough and tumble guys saying things and speaking in a way that you’re not accustomed to hearing. Ultimately, it’s about two people who desperately need each other. It’d be like if ‘The Notebook” and “Reservoir Dogs” got together and had a baby” says Bryant Martin, co-writer and actor, in The Other Man.
It is the goal of Dodge City Entertainment to encourage artistic endeavors, with a special focus on film, theatre and music that are independent in nature and to create opportunities for artists to have an outlet for their creative talents. The Other Man is the inaugural production of Dodge City Entertainment.
