Blaze: A Tribute to Blaze Foley

Posted September 21, 2018

In conjunction with The Film Club at SCF, we present "Blaze: A Tribute to Blaze Foley" at Burns Court Cinemas, located at 506 Burns Lane, Sarasota FL 34236.  This event will kick off at 6:45pm on the evening of September 28th with a 30 Minute Live Performanace by Bodie Valdez, a local Sarasota Musician who has shared the stage with Blaze himself.  Followed by a screening of "Blaze" at 7:30pm.  Tickets can be purchase at the Box Office or Online by clicking here.

 
BLAZE is inspired by the life of Blaze Foley, the unsung songwriting legend of the Texas outlaw music movement that spawned the likes of Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson. The film weaves together three different periods of time, braiding re-imagined versions of Blaze's past, present and future. The different strands explore his love affair with Sybil Rosen; his last, dark night on earth; and the impact of his songs and his death had on his fans, friends, and foes. The braided storyline terminates in a bittersweet ending that acknowledges Blaze's profound highs and lows, as well as the impressions he made on the people who shared his journey.
