Charmed and amused, Harris soon accepts the stranger’s invitation to come to the small town of Beaver to film a talent show, where...

George Malich was a prolific and well-respected actor in the St. Louis area who passed away last year. This Wednesday evening, March 27th, the George Malich Free Film Festival, presented by Poetry Scores, Cinema St. Louis and Kdhx, concludes at Mad Art Gallery (2727 So. 12th St. in Soulard) with scenes from Go South For Animal Index (a film in progress) directed by Chris King and written by Stefene Russell and Chris King.
In Go South For Animal Index, George Malich plays the military chaplain assigned to Lost Almost, the fabled version of Los Alamos in this silent movie based on a poem by Stefene Russell (set to rock music). Soldiers guard scientists as they try to invent the atomic bomb, starting with uranium mined by zombies (or, as the poem would have it, “debased cogs that bear wheelbarrows packed full of lightning”). The hypocrisy of ministering to the spiritual needs...

George Malich was a prolific and well-respected actor in the St. Louis area who passed away last year. This Wednesday evening, March 20th, the George Malich Free Film Festival, presented by Poetry Scores, Cinema St. Louis and Kdhx, continues at Mad Art Gallery (2727 So. 12th St. in Soulard) with a free screening of Billy Benner’s 2011 film Speak Easy starring George Malich and Dick Pointer. After the screening, Peter Kruchowski and Rebecca S. Rivas will interview producing director Billy Benner and producer Mike Pagano. Speak Easy was shot on location in south St. Louis, primarily in the Benton Park neighborhood and focuses on Barney Monroe, a longtime south city resident who embodies the spirit of the St. Louisan term “hoosier.” That is to say he’s something of an urban redneck content with living a simple life filled with drinking beer and playing host to a series of amusing guests in his basement speakeasy.

This Wednesday evening, March 13th, the George Malich Free Film Festival, presented by Poetry Scores, Cinema St. Louis and Kdhx, continues at Mad Art Gallery (2727 So. 12th St. in Soulard) with the 2006 comedy A.(Anonymous). Told in low-budget mockumentary style, A.(Anonymous) follows the several eccentric members of an unconventional support group as they struggle with their strange problems. George Malich plays Gavin Tartowski, who has been called a quack, a cult-leader, and a barista who sees himself as a guru. Looking for a support group to help him with his compulsion to wear extremely tight pants, Gavin was turned away from 12-step programs like AA, Na and Ga. “Why all the labels?” Gavin asks. “Why not put all problems under one umbrella? That is why I created A. I want to...
