DALE DOCUMENTARY TO SCREEN AT FEST

Dale reveals public triumphs and private moments

The Indianapolis International Film Festival will screen two showings of the film Dale, a documentary about the late NASCAR driving legend Dale Earnhardt. Screenings will be today at 6:30 p.m. and Monday, April 30 at 5:30 p.m. at Key Cinemas.

Dale was created through a collection of archival footage, home movies, and personal interviews with family and friends.

“Rory Karpf and Ryan McGee crafted this fascinating tribute and I love that they allowed Earnhardt to speak for himself,” said Festival Founder and Director Brian Owens. “No actor could possibly corral the energy, the passion, and the swagger that Dale Earnhardt brought to his sport and to the world.”

The documentary features Dale Earnhardt, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Kelley Earnhardt, Teresa Earnhardt, and narrator Paul Newman.

“We’re so thankful to be able to bring this moving documentary to Indianapolis, the racing capital of the world,” said Owens. “We feel we’ve brought this film home.”
