FOR KEEPS
Malone Media is currently developing For Keeps, a narrative short film written by Dave Malone and Paulette Guerin. Recognized by several film festivals, the screenplay tells a story of friendship, loss, and resilience. Directed by Dave Malone, the film will be produced in West Plains, Missouri, and is currently seeking community partners and funding support to bring the project to life.
After a devastating miscarriage, two platonic best friends in the Ozarks find their grief tested, and ultimately transformed, by a mysterious parrot cookie jar that keeps reappearing no matter how often they destroy it.
Tennyson's MAUD
Malone Media, in partnership with Better Wings Productions (Searcy, AR), is submitting Tennyson’s Maud to the festival circuit. The short film is inspired by Alfred Lord Tennyson’s poem “Maud” and set in the 1920s Ozarks.
Two star-crossed lovers from different social classes are prepared to elope—until Maud’s overprotective brother stands in the way. Maud is prepared to walk away from wealth and family for a man she loves though his love borders on possession.
