I’ll be introducing the film PRODIGAL SONS this Saturday night at the Kendall Square Cinema in Boston at 7 PM. After the film I’ll interview one of its subjects, Kimberly Reed, who will also be on hand to talk about the film. Kimberly was the subject of an Oprah Winfrey program last month. The film is a lovely indie that’s been getting all sorts of press. Hope anyone in the Boston area who’s interested will come on out.
