Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “Bull Street” showing Aug. 30-Sept. 5 at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.
Writer/director Lynn Dow and producer Wendy Tucker-Tannock will be in Sedona in person to do a live Q&A at the opening screening of “Bull Street” on Friday, Aug. 30.
“Bull Street” follows LouEster Sadie Gibbs (played by newcomer Malynda Hale), a 39-year-old small-town personal injury lawyer whose mother died in childbirth. Her grandmother, Mrs. Big-Gal (Sedona Film Festival honoree Loretta Devine), has raised her in their humble family home with love and a rich spiritual tradition.
When an entitled Ivy League lawyer questions their ownership of the home and its surrounding land, the stage is set for a clash of privilege against family. Judge Motley (Amy Madigan) must determine whether LouEster’s lifelong home really is her birthright or if the handshake transfer of land doesn’t hold up in court.
“Bull Street” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre Aug. 30-Sept. 5. Showtimes will be Friday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, Aug. 30, Sept. 3, 4 and 5 at 4:00 p.m.; and Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Aug. 31, Sept. 1 and 2 at 7:00 p.m.
Tickets are $12, or $9 for Film Festival members. For tickets and more information, please call 928-282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona. For more information, visit: www.SedonaFilmFestival.org.
