Happy Thursday,
Several Fort Worth-area events were either canceled or postponed as extreme cold weather nears this weekend.
Instead of skipping out on today’s newsletter, I thought it would be fun to round up some movies and television shows either filmed or based in Fort Worth that are worth watching while you’re safe at home.
The list below does not encompass every film that has been made in Cowtown, but it is a diverse group of projects that spotlight the different communities that make up our city.
What’s your favorite Fort Worth film project? Let me know by messaging me at david.moreno@fortworthreport.org.
Prepare for journey to the crown in ‘Miss Juneteenth’
The film tells the story of Turquoise Jones, a one-time winner of the Miss Juneteenth beauty pageant, as she tries to advise her daughter Kai to participate in the same competition. Several East Rosedale Street locations make appearances.
Where to watch: Starz
