Waiting on Mary
Thurs., Mar. 31, 10 p.m. Bajo Cuva Cohen Turkel Theater 1, Centro Ybor. gasparillafilmfestival.com
A locally created film that you’d likely want to watch even if it didn’t have footage shot at Crescent Lake and in Gulfport’s Art Village Courtyard. Corey Horton blended our top local actors (including Brian Shea, Ned Averill-Snell, Emilee Dupré, Bonnie Agan, Jim Wicker, Bob Devin Jones, Matthew McGee, Matt Lunsford and Katherine Michelle Tanner), a well-crafted story, skilled camera work and you-don’t-really-think-about-it editing into this quirky “Tampa Bay Brat Pack coping with middle age” film. Go see it, if only to catch Averill-Snell in a costumed carrot fight scene.
