"The Falcon" [Short Movie]

The Falcon is a short movie directed by Daniel Casey. The movie stars local metro Detroit actors: Tim Casey (main character), Cory T. Smith (friend 1), Ben Donovan (friend 2), John Fresch (redneck), and Mary Casey (sister). It was shot in Royal Oak, MI for the Sixth Annual Holiday Film Festival at Burton Theatre (all proceeds went to Covenant House Michigan) on 12/22/2010. Remarkably, it was shot in a single day and edited in two!

According to Vimeo, "The Falcon tells the story of three rural Michigan youths who go on a beer driven adventure attempting to rescue a Christmas Present from a crazy redneck."

Good Job! Remember SUPPORT LOCAL TALENT!
