Description
The Dallas Historical Society and Media Projects, Inc. presents the world premiere of A Fair to Remember, a film by Allen Mondell and Cynthia Salzman Mondell, co-produced by Phillip Allen.
This new documentary about the Great State Fair of Texas captures the heart of Texas and is a roller-coaster ride chronicling the history of the Fair from its inception in 1886 to its destination today.
Dramatic archival footage, alluring interviews, original music by Brave Combo and dazzling animation by Janimation (Spy Kids 2 & Spy Kids 3-D ).
Barry Corbin (One Tree Hill, Northern Exposure, WarGames, Urban Cowboy), lends his famous Texas drawl to the narration. It's a film to entertain viewers of all ages.
