Abstract
Join author Michael Farris Smith at the Powerhouse in Oxford for an evening of cinema featuring the film adaptation of his book "Desperation Road." Smith's novel was named Indie Next, honored on numerous Best Books lists, and will be his second feature-film adaptation but the first to release. The Southern noir thriller is set in a tough-and-tumble Mississippi town where a young woman and her daughter are caught in the crossfire where whiskey, guns, and revenge violently intersect. Starring Mel Gibson, Garrett Hedlund, and Willa Fitzgerald, the film was made in the South and we are honored to celebrate it first in Smith's hometown.
