The Boltons of Red Bay

Every town has a banking family. In Red Bay, Alabama, it’s the Boltons.

This film tells their story from the vantage point of Brad Bolton, the CEO of Community Spirit Bank.

On the surface, Brad and I couldn’t be more dissimilar. He tucks polo shirts into nicely pressed khaki pants; I dress like a twenty-two year-old wannabe YouTuber. He’s refined, polite and religious while I’m perceived as eccentric and unpredictable.

But we both bleed the same blood.

We both get, on a visceral level, how important these institutions are towns and people across America. It’s one of those things you can’t unsee.

So it is my pleasure to present to you The Boltons of Red Bay.

I trust you will find, as I did, a sincere and hardworking family that is fighting every day for their bank, their town and their country.

Sincerely,

John J. Maxfield
