Looking for Mrs. Locklear

During the summer of 2006, Rhett and Link decided to search for their beloved teacher. They chose not to use the Internet or the telephone, but instead to rely on face-to-face contact with people. Looking for Ms. Locklear is a documentary chronicling this search, which led them far from home and into the company of a host of characters. The movie prominently features the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina, as their search led them to the center of Lumbee culture, Pembroke, NC. Backstory: Rhett and Link met on the first day of first grade in Buies Creek Elementary School, after their teacher Ms. Locklear made them stay inside during recess for writing profanity on their desks. They became best friends after they were forced to be quiet and color pictures of Unicorns. In high school, Rhett was on the basketball team, while Link competed in multiple science competitions. Later, they were roommates at North Carolina State University where they studied engineering. They are now Internet personality broadcasting music videos, skits and other comedic endeavors on www.rhettandlink.com

Something Blue

SOMETHING BLUE is a mockumentary film about an interracial wedding between Susan, a white, middle-class bride, and Terry, a groom from a family of blue-skinned ‘Polar Americans’ whose people immigrated to America from Antarctica.

As a gift to his best friends, Zack, an aspiring filmmaker, decides to document everything he can about the special occasion, from the initial planning through the final ceremony.

As the weeks leading up to the big event progress, tensions mount.  Miscommunication abounds, personalities clash and the question becomes not whether Susan and Terry will be a happy couple, but whether they can even survive the pre-wedding stresses of cultures, families and class.

Zach gets more than he bargained for, and the events he captures on film tell a hilarious yet touching story about race, family, and human relationships, as two cultures collide in the name of love.

For more information, visit the filmmakers' website.
