Okay, Mr. Ray!
# You're never broke long as you keep trading!
π Overview:
No one could spin a yarn to make a sale like Ray Lum. Twenty years after their initial meeting, Bill Ferris returned home to Mississippi in the early β70s with a camera. The result reveals a look back at the colorful rhythms of Rayβs lifeβat home, at the auction, joking with strangers outside country storesβ and provides a glimpse at Southern manhood, friendship and loss. Now nearly Rayβs age when they first filmed, Ferris has become a Grammy Award winning documentarian and renowned folklorist. Using never before seen 16mm footage and new animations, OKAY, MR. RAY is a short documentary film about how even the tallest tales help us keep the memory alive of the ones we love.
