PBS DOCUMENTARY DEBUTS AT BOOKFEST: From my colleagues Tom Rea and Laurie Lye on the Equality State Book Festival planning committee: "A last-minute addition to the Mormon history events slated for Friday Oct. 20 at the National Historic Trails Center in Casper will be two free showings of the LDS filmmaker Lee Groberg’s new PBS documentary, The Sweetwater Rescue: The Willie and Martin Handcart Story. The hour-long film will show at 9 a.m. and again at 4 p.m. This documentary will not air nationally until December 18. Go to the ESBF website and click on events for more details." With this addition, the ESBF will have three screenings of WYO-based films: Brokeback Mountain, The Laramie Project, and The Sweetwater Rescue. We could almost lengthen the event's official title to (hold your breath): "The 20th annual Casper College Literary Conference presents the Equality State Book Festival and Filmfest." Say that fast five times.
