Michael Jacobs, who dir­ected the unique story of Pentecostal pastor Richard Gazowsky in Audience of One (review), has a new web series that looks very prom­ising. American Dreamers focuses on a dif­ferent indi­vidual each week, telling stories about eccentric or unusual pur­suits. I’ve embedded the first episode below, about Jim Bishop, who’s been building a castle single-handedly in Beulah, Colorado for almost 40 years. I think you’ll agree that Jacobs has a gift for finding inter­esting stories and telling them well. The series runs for ten epis­odes, with new epis­odes released each Wednesday.
