Saw "Angels' Perch" at the cinema last evening after following the production and filming online for months. It was set and filmed in Cass, WV, with a few scenes in Pittsburgh.
The theater was full and one heard sniffles and belly laughs both, during the showing. Gathering in the lobby of the theater after, it was obvious that we didn't want the experience to end.
I'll only give you the story line set-up: Jack is making a name for himself as an architect in Pgh, PA. Nana, his devoted grandmother, lives alone in Cass, WV where Jack grew up, and is beginning to show symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Jack returns to Cass to make arrangements for Nana's care, with a make or break project presentation due in Pgh in one week.
You'll have to see it yourself for...the rest of the story. What you will see and feel is the true personality of West Virginia and her people captured in this film. There are no caricatured hillbillies, no "Deliverance" types or mudding' scenes....just real people and some of the characters were played by real residents in and around Cass. Don't miss it! Ask your local theater for a showing. You will not be sorry! Excellent movie!
Thank you for this story, JT Arbogast!
