Indie Films at Barking Legs in May

F3Films, in cooperation with The Barking Legs Theater of downtown Chattanooga, is proud to announce “Movies in May” on Friday night, May 5th, at 7 p.m. They will be premiering four short independent films produced and directed by Tennessee’s own Jon Russell and Tracy Cring, a husband and wife team bringing a little bit of Hollywood to the Volunteer State.

The four films being presented are Dinner, The Man with the Red Hat, 12/23 and Inside, ranging in style from suspense and horror to Christmas to an historical drama to a dream-like sequence on the nature of creativity.

“Being an independent filmmaker means you have to use what you’ve got and make it look like what you want,” jokes Tracy Cring, main cinematographer. “Sometimes I wonder if we could make Ben Hur out of what we found in our couch cushions.”

When asked what F3Films stands for, Jon Russell replies, “It stands for fantasy, faith and farce—the three realms we wanted our films to explore that would cause adults to think and be entertained while not having to chase their kids out of the room.”

Each film runs about fifteen minutes in length.

They will also be showing trailers of their first feature-length film, Lenders Morgan, a mysterious epic drama set in rural America in 1969.

Mr. and Mrs. Cring will be at the screening of the movies to talk about the process of mini-budget filmmaking and the potentials available for budding artists as writers, actors and producers. The Barking Legs Theater is one of four stops in the Tennessee area in the month of May. Tickets are $5.00 and can be purchased at the door. For more information, please call 1 (800) 643-4718 then press 74.
