Filmmaker Kurt Kuenne, who directed the heavily Texas-flavored Drive-In Movie Memories in 2001, has some exciting news about his latest project, Dear Zachary, a documentary that had people weeping openly at the South by Southwest film festival in Austin earlier this year. Dear Zachary has been acquired by the MSNBC cable network as the debut film for its newly formed MSNBC Films division, which Mr. Kuenne describes as "a platform through which they will be presenting provocative and award-winning films on television, while also supporting films during their festival run and theatrical release."

It will, however, play in theaters in New York and Los Angeles during August. It must do so by August 31 to qualify for Academy Awards consideration. Look for this one as a serious Best Documentary contender at the Oscars ceremony in early 2009. To watch a trailer of the film, click here:

I just watched the program about Zacharay Bagby. I'm shocked. I am a grandparent and cannot imagine the horror and pain this family went through. My prayers are with them. What courageous grandparents. I'm so sorry for their pain and sorrow. Someday they will all be together. God Bless. Chris Romo
This documentary showed the most horrific and appalling act of evil that any person could ever commit. The courts and government should be held accountable. What a horrible tragedy. My prayers go out to the family.
