OH MY GAWD…deadCENTER!!!
The deadCenter Film Festival kicks off on Film Row this evening with Bradley Beesley’s The Sweethearts of the Prison Rodeo. Beesley has a knack for sympathetically capturing the freaks, the unhappy campers, and the flat-out strange. In his hands, oddity seems but a reflection of the human condition. Beesley allows us all to be unapologetic freaks. In his capable hands, the female inmates of the Oklahoma State Penitentiary get their chance to take the stage. I can’t wait.
But of course it wouldn’t be deadCENTER without the parties. The Kick-Off Party starts on Film Row at 7:30pm, followed by the screening of The Sweethearts of the Prison Rodeo at 9:00pm. Then Day 1 concludes with a Kick-Off After Party over at Maker’s in Bricktown beginning at 11:00pm.
The weather WILL cooperate. It must be so.
