Dear neighbor,

Tickets are sold out for this new film about Durham so
two more showings have been added (Friday at 9:40PM
and Sunday at 2PM -- see below).

Songwriter, John D. Loudermilk was interviewed for the
film -- sitting right next to Erwin Mills. (Loudermilk
was born in the neighborhood and wrote the song,
"Tobacco Road" by Lou Rawls.)

Long-time West Durham residents, Mary Coles and Mattie
Riley, were also interviewed. (Mary and Mattie grew up
in the mill village, Mary's husband ran the billiard
parlor in what is now Dogstar Tattoo.)
