Our readers’ grass-roots “Fahrenheit 601” campaign to bring Michael Moore’s film to Jackson is inspiring them to band together to bring other independent and edgy films to Jackson. Since we launched, this has been one of the JFP’s active goals to help improve the cultural climate in the capitol city—and we have helped with a number of e-mail campaigns to help get people out to films like “The Pianist” and “Saved!” (now in theaters here). We’ve also run several stories about the need to bring better films here, and to tell our own stories through film. We are pulling some of those stories back to the top of the site this week to add some fuel to the current fire.
