Bravo, Ms. Brown

The Order of Myths premiere at the Saenger was as well attended as the film was received.   

Of the film itself, I don’t know how it could have been better. A true work of art, it is far more subtle and layered than many will understand after only one viewing. I’d love to see what was cut in editing.  

Sadly, I also feel the blinders many locals assume in regard to local culture and sociology will prevent the film from having any true impact on Mobile.  Some superficialities may emerge, yet deeper and more resolute change isn’t so easy.
