Festivals and screenings
“Best of the Fest..
..nails the dynamics of a rinky-dink music scene in a small town ... Great original songs.”
(Tony Kay, The Sunbreak)
“Retro charm...
A briny, wistful quality.”
(Brian Miller, Seattle Weekly)
Inspired more by films like People on Sunday (1930) than Frankie and Annette, Beach Town is a rock and roll beach movie of the mind -- an unabashedly atmospheric look at the lives of young people whose art is ineffably linked with their surroundings in a low-rent coastal community. This Two-Lane Blacktop of beach movies was shot entirely in Seattle, USA on glorious, Super-16 color film, with an upbeat summertime soundtrack of over 30 original songs and plenty of sunshine for all.
