The Forgotten Coast Film Festival will be highlighting four outstanding films made on location in Carrabelle and along our Forgotten Coast.  This film series will open Thursday, January 26 from 6-9 p.m. with a showing of the classic, Ulee’s Gold (R) starring Peter Fonda, Patricia Richardson, and Christine Dunford. On this "premier night" we have an exciting, special guest joining us for the evening. First Assistant Director for Ulee’s Gold and Coastlines (and more), Guz Holzer, will be there sharing some behind the scenes stories of the movie and shooting in our area.

A program of the Carrabelle History Museum, the Forgotten Coast Film Festival will feature a total of two dramas by Tallahassee director Victor Nunez and two documentaries made by director Elam Stoltzfus and by the Florida Wildlife Corridor. The goal of the series is to bring the best quality Forgotten Coast area films to Carrabelle and introduce (or re-introduce) people to these wonderful works featuring the beauty of our very own region.  There is no admission and refreshments will be available for purchase. No one under 18. Funding in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council.
