Filmmakers in the South: Spotlight on Alabama

Posted: Oct 17, 2008

This week I would like to celebrate southern filmmakers, particularly those who hail from Alabama or who have made films about Alabama. One of these outstanding documentary filmmakers is Max Shores, producer and director of nearly a dozen films. Shores won Best Alabama Film and Best Professional Documentary at the 2007 George Lindsey UNA Film Festival, Best of Show and First Place Documentary at the 2007 Macon Film Festival, and Second Place Feature Documentary at the 2006 Tupelo Film Festival.  For more about this extraordinary filmmaker, see Conversations with Alabama Filmmaker Max Shores.

Swampland readers are, by now, thoroughly familiar with documentary filmmaker Deryle Perryman, formerly of Florence, Alabama. Perryman's film, Dangerous Highway, a documentary about the life of blue-eyed soul musician Eddie Hinton, has been shown at film festivals all over the United States and was most recently screened at the Porretta Soul Festival in Italy.

Perryman, who makes his home in Albuquerque, New Mexico, was interviewed this month by Jim Belshaw of the Albuquerque Journal about his upcoming documentary Same Same, But Different. Perryman's documentary examines the lives of Vietnam veterans over forty years after the Tet Offensive. Belshaw's article Vietnam Vet Seeks Perspective appeared in the Albuquerque Journal on Saturday, October 04, 2008. You can read the complete article on Belshaw's archive site.

If you would  like to contact Perryman about this project, you may e-mail him at samcooke@ix.netcom.com.
