In 1995, we spent a week with screen legend Ernest Borgnine and his son Cris as they drove across the Midwest in his 40-foot bus The Sunbum, taping them for a tv show we were pitching called ERNEST BORGNINE ON TOUR. This was a reality tv show five years ahead of the curve. Nobody in show biz was interested, but we had enough footage for a one hour documentary we called ERNEST BORGNINE ON THE BUS. It was well received in film festivals, on regional PBS, and on home video. In honor of Ernie's 95th birthday, we wanted to share the entire week because it was such a fun time on the road. Working with Ernie and Cris was a blast, and we are glad to be able to share it with you . As Ernie says 'God bless.' And thanks. www.jeffkrulik.com
