“Momma’s Man”
Thursday, July 16, 7 p.m.
2009 (doors open at 6:30)
LTC Studio, 246 Market st.
During a short business trip to New York, 30-something Mikey pays a visit to his parents’ home and decides never to leave, forsaking all his responsibilities as a husband and new father back in Los Angeles. Written and directed by Azazel Jacobs, this unique independent drama delves into the fear of facing adulthood, the romanticizing of the past and the unwillingness to accept change, regardless of its inevitability.

Lowell Film Collaborative “Food & Film Series”
Join us for our second film event of the LFC’s “Food & Film” series! Our DTL restaurants need all the support they can get, especially during the winter months. The LFC is doing what they can to help bring folks into downtown restaurants during this time for a little celebrating with dinner and a movie. We’ll set up the old-fashioned tripod screen, fire up the LCD projector, and dim the lights. Instant movie screening magic! And of course we encourage everyone to indulge in food and drink to round out the night. Come support the Lowell Film Collaborative, but most importantly, come support some of our favorite DTL restaurants!Join the Lowell Film Collaborative’s growing e-mail distribution list and we’ll keep you posted on all our upcoming film events! E-mail us at lowellfilmcollaborative@live.com.

The Lowell Film Collaborative and Moses Greeley Parker Lectures Present:

‘Searching for the Wrong-Eyed Jesus’
Sunday, December 7th
Lowell National Park Visitor Center246 Market Street
2 p.m. / Live Performance by Appalachian Still
3 p.m. / Film Screening
You’re officially invited to a thought-provoking road trip through the American South: a world of churches, prisons, coal mines, truck stops, juke joints, swamps and mountains. Along the way, you’ll encounter various musicians inspired by these unique places and hear a collage of stories and testimonies, almost invariably of sudden death, sin or redemption, Heaven or Hell — with no middle ground. Joining you on this southern exploration is alt-country singer Jim White, who reflects upon exactly what it is about this baffling place that inspires musicians and writers, at the same time working through his own preoccupations with his muse — or, as he puts it, “trying to find the gold tooth in God’s crooked smile.”
