Corsicana native Eddie Hassell is celebrating the theatrical run of Bomb City. The independent narrative first premiered at the 2017 Dallas International Film Festival where it won the Audience Award for ‘Best Narrative Feature.’ It went on to win the same award at the Louisville, Nashville and Tallgrass Film Festivals.
The film tells the true story of Brian Deneke, a 19-year-old “Punk†and his senseless death at the hands of 17-year-old “Jockâ€, Dustin Camp. The trial that ensues thereafter in their small conservative town of Amarillo, Texas, makes the entire country question the morality of American justice.
