GREEN BAY, Wis. (WFRV) - A movie that features Northeast Wisconsin dairy farmers and the Green Bay Packers hits theaters nationwide beginning Jan. 31. 'Green and Gold' follows the story of a Door County dairy farmer who bets it all on the Packers winning the Super Bowl to save his farm from foreclosure. The filmmakers said they hope the film captures the essence of Northeast Wisconsin and showcases the importance of family and community in our area. “Even people who are in town for the event they’re like oh my gosh everybody is so nice, I hope that’s the culture that comes through in our film," said Davin Lindwall who is the movie's producer. "It’s a culture we were raised in and love and we hope people get a glimpse of.” On Friday night, Lambeau Field's atrium hosted an event to celebrate the movie. It featured a red carpet for some of the films star which runs the gamut from A-list Hollywood stars like Craig T. Nelson to local celebrities like Charlie Berens. "I keep saying heart here but I think that's kind of intentional," said Berens. "This film has a lot of heart. When people see the movie I think they're going to fall in love with Wisconsin as well."  Wisconsin Sheriff’s Office Deputy invited for Thanksgiving dinner provides kids with gift cards Berens plays a radio host in the movie and said it was an honor to be part of this project. The movie's director and producer said they wanted Nelson to play the lead, but that their casting department thought they were little nuts to think he'd be interested in starring in the film. They reached out to Nelson's people and it turned out the actor loved the script. "When I got the script the heart in the script was just amazing," said Nelson. Friday night's celebration included an extended preview of the movie as well as a live performance of one of the songs on the movie's soundtrack. The Green Bay Packers and Culver's through their 'Thank You Farmers Project' partnered with the filmmakers to make the movie possible. In addition to the red carpet, there was a Culver's blue carpet to celebrate their partnership with the filmmakers and the state's dairy farmers. Packers CEO and president Mark Murphy also got to walk the red carpet at the event Friday night and admitted that even he got a little bit starstruck. "Well I'm in awe, I'm right next to Craig T. Nelson," said Murphy. "It's exciting to have this event here and to have so much filmed in the state particularly Door county."  The director and producer, brothers Anders and Davin Lindwall, grew up in Iron River and said they're big Packers fans. They said their grandfather was a dairy farmer. They said a studio approached them about buying the rights to the project. But that group wanted to film in Alabama so the brothers declined the offer. It was important to them to keep the movie authentic and film it in Northeast Wisconsin (most of it was filmed in Door County and around Lambeau Field).

"I think we as a community we're blessed because there are so many good people and I think that's what they found when they came up to Door County," said John Sawyer a Door County farmer whose farm was used as a filming location for the movie. "I hope what people get from it is a feeling of similarity, feeling of empathy and understanding," said Nelson. "Pride in the Midwest and the heartland." Craig T. Nelson will sing the National Anthem at Lambeau Field for the Packers game against the Chicago Bears.
