181. Tony Bonacci on the Long Road to 'The Headliner'

Filmmaker Tony Bonacci previously appeared on the show when his
acclaimed short, The Headliner, made festival rounds in 2018.
Even then, he was adamant that he would turn that story into a
feature alongside the short’s writer, Christine Burright, and its
star, Darrick Silkman. Several years and one global pandemic
later, he has. Bonacci’s feature film debut, also titled The
Headliner, is premiering on Saturday March 2nd at ⁠this year’s
Omaha Film Festival⁠.


On this week's show, Bonacci talks with Tom Knoblauch about
putting the feature together and what to expect at this year's
Omaha Film Festival premiere.
