macon film festival

February 18-21, 2010
Saturday evening, February 20, 2010 My Bride and I participated in the Fifth Annual Film Festival. This was our first time attending this event, but we had heard such great comments about this festival that we checked it out.
We attended the showings at the Douglas Theatre from 4:00 P.M. until the last film at the Douglas was complete.
We enjoyed the opportunity and also learned a lot. We watched two Documentary submissions which were entitled:
Theatre of the Mind
Carving Up the Oconee
After each presentation there was time for interaction with the creators of the film. A very rewarding experience and also an excellent opportunity to meet the creators. The "Theatre of the Mind" film was produced by two students from Georgia Southern University. They certainly are a credit to their school as well as themselves.
The highpoint of the evening was the viewing of the Narrative Short entitled "You Are Beautiful" which was shot over a period of five days in the City of Savannah, Georgia. A fun film with a valid lesson to be learned by all viewers.
In summary, a most enjoyable evening. You can be confident that the Flower and His Bride will be attending in 2011.
The organizers of this event can certainly be very proud of their accomplishments. Thank You!!!
