Winding Stream screenings in Nashville!


Beth Harrington's definitive documentary on The Carter Family (and Cash Family), "The Winding Stream", will be showing in Nashville as part of the Nashville Film Fest. Unfortunately, the film was somehow not listed in local paper "Nashville Scene".  So let's get the word out!

On Facebook, Beth writes: "The crucial screening - the one some of the family is coming to - is Sunday April 20 at 7. (There's another on April 22 at noon). The theatres are the Green Hills cinema. Tickets are available there and on the Nashville Film festival website."



If I was in Nashville, I would be seeing that film on April 20.  Here is the link for tickets:

UPDATE: "Nashville Scene" has mentioned the screenings online!

Today a friend told me that a friend of his spotted the "Carter Family" graphic novel displayed at a bookstore in Berlin (Germany)! 

And Cece Bell spotted it at Four Seasons books in Shepherdstown, WV, and snapped the photo above.  Thank you Four Seasons!
