Filmmaker Rob Underhill to join us tonight!
Tonight at the Kick-off for the Twin Rivers Media Festival, filmmaker Rob Underhill will join and present his two short dramas, "Wolf Call" and "Entertainer":
Wolf Call
It is 1956. The previous year, 14-year old Emmett Till from
Chicago had gone missing in Money, Mississippi. Later, the boy's
mutilated body was found in a river. William Bradford Huie of Look
magazine sits down with the two men acquitted for the boy's murder, Roy
Bryant Jr. and J.W. Milam, to discuss the trial. Not a word had been
uttered outside a courtroom by them or their kin, until now... this true
story crafted from public record, transports us back to this historic
drama that became a lightning rod for moral outrage and pivotal in
inspiring a whole generation of young people to commit social change in
the 1950s.
Entertainer
Prime-time interview with Bob about life, coping with loss, and preserving love.
