Windy City Queercast

Host: Amy Matheny

Amy is wanting to know what YOU are dressing up as for Halloween. “I am going as a Slutty ______ for Halloween” you fill in the blank and let Amy know! Chaz Bono is STILL on Dancing with the Stars, are you watching? Are you voting? Reeling Film Festival is kicking off in Chicago November 3rd with Stephen Cone’s film, The Wise Kids. Visit www.reelingfilmfestival.org for more information.

Guest: Filmmaker, writer, actor, Stephen Cone joins Amy on the Queercast. Stephen was named one of the actors to watch out for by the Tribune for his performance in The Homosexuals. He shares his early beginnings in South Carolina as the son of a preacher man, how he fell in love with filmmaking and acting, working on The Homosexuals and The Wise Kids and now calling Chicago home. He gives hints on a new film he’s working on called Black Box and if John Hughes was an inspiration for it. For more info on screenings outside of the Chicago area, visit www.thewisekids.com.
