ChathamArts’ Sustainable Cinema Series starts the new year off with a Jan. 29 screening of the documentary Looking for Ms. Locklear. Lillington-based filmmakers Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal will be on hand for a post-film discussion.
The show begins at 7 p.m. in the Fearrington Village Barn on U.S. 15-501 in Chatham County, midway between Pittsboro and Chapel Hill. Special event admission is $10 at the door or online at chathamarts.org
Rhett and Link have been friends since meeting in Ms. Locklear’s first-grade classroom in Buies Creek. During the summer of 2006, they decided to search for her by relying solely on face-to-face contacts. Looking for Ms. Locklear chronicles that journey.
Locklear won the 2008 Southern Lens Award from South Carolina Public Television and the Audience Award at the Secret City and Ace film festivals.
