May 1, 2022 - Reel Rhode Island/ Before Hollywood/ My Take (Bill Harley)

This week on RI PBS Weekly, Pamela Watts reports on why Rhode Island has become one of the top destinations for television and film productions.  Next, before there was Hollywood, Rhode Island had a film entertainment industry of its own. We explore those early productions and highlight a fragment of the thousands of hours of local films housed at the Rhode Island Historical Society. Next , star local storyteller Bill Harley gives us his "take" on the art of storytelling.
