The Chattanooga Film Society is holding its winter quarterly meeting at the downtown Chattanooga YMCA, starting at 6:00 PM on Thursday, February 23rd. The meeting will begin with a brief “meet and greet” for current members and guests. This will be followed by a screening of the documentary film Mud on the Stars: Stories from Elia Kazan's Wild River.
In the documentary, residents of Bradley County, Tennessee, celebrate the 50th anniversary of the movie that put them on the map – or technically, the big screen. This documentary recounts the making of Wild River from the hometown point of view. There will also be a live panel discussion featuring cast and crew members who were involved with the Mud on the Stars project as well as Wild River.
