| Other Information: | Kick off the exhibition Fish Stories: Early Images of American Game Fish with a screening of this lively documentary by renowned filmmaker Bradley Beesley, who will join us for a post-screening discussion. The film features interviews with hardcore handfishing veterans, as well as rousing footage of real noodlers in action. Set against an original musical score by rock band The Flaming Lips, Okie Noodling offers an anecdotal and often hilarious look at a most unusual piece of Midwest American culture. Okie Noodling premiered to sold-out crowds at the 2001 South by Southwest Film Festival, winning the Audience Choice Award and First Runner Up for Best Documentary. The film also won Best Documentary at the 2001 Great Plains Film Festival. Sponsored by Demara Titzer and Legacy Condominiums. Free, register online or by calling Guest Services at 479.657.2335. |
