WNED | WBFO and the Buffalo International Film Festival proudly present a screening of the film MARSHALL on October 7th

WNED | WBFO and the Buffalo International Film Festival proudly present the Buffalo premiere of the film MARSHALL.  Shot primarily in Buffalo, this fascinating adaptation of an event in the early career of Thurgood Marshall features many familiar landmarks of Western New York. See how the filmmakers transformed Buffalo's City Hall, the Central Terminal, Statler City, the Niagara Falls Library, Akron Falls County Park, the Orchard Park train depot and the former Michael J. Dillon Federal Courthouse into Connecticut in the 1940s.

Join us on October 7 at the North Park Theatre for this once in a lifetime red carpet premiere screening. The evening will feature an area for photos and a lively panel discussion - with behind-the-scenes tidbits - from producers Chris Bongirne and Jonathan Sanger. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. and the screening beings at 8:00 p.m. Panel discussion and Q&A occur immediately after the screening.
