Film To Debut In Prestonsburg
KENTUCKY....
It happened over fifty years ago and brought tears as it shocked the nation, but no one will ever forget the tragic Floyd County bus crash which took the lives of 26 children and their driver when it plunged into the Levisa Fork of the Big Sandy River.
"The Very Worst Thing" will debut at 7:30 P.M. February 19th at the Mountain Arts Center in Prestonsburg. The documentary film, directed by Michael Crisp, will chronicle the events and and memories of the February 28, 1958, crash, including photos and recordings made at the crash site and interviews with Martha Burchett, one of the children who escaped the bus and was rescued from the river.
