OF THE MONTH

Ninth Street.jpg

"Ninth Street"(1999) Written and  directed by Junction City, KS native Kevin Willmott.

Summary: The inhabitants of a deteriorating section of 1968 Junction City, Kansas known as "Junk City" bemoan their existence and revel at the history of their neighborhood during its 1940's heydays when legendary jazz musicians regularly played its clubs. In 1968, the area has diminished to strip clubs and juke joints inhabited by Vietnam War draftees that pass through from nearby Fort Riley.
