From Marianna to the big screen: Evan Barber talks “It Ends”
MARIANNA, Fla. (WMBB) - Evan Barber graduated from Marianna High School in 2016, and even then he knew he wanted to make movies. "I think what made me want to be a filmmaker was two things. Watching a lot of movies on my own and then very specifically my father showing me the behind-the-scenes of this movie called El Mariachi. But in there, behind the scenes, it was just a bunch of kids making a movie in their backyard, and seeing that as a young person was really eye-opening to see like movies were made by people," Barber said.

Remembering when Dolly Parton 'turned 'em on' at Tully Gym and Tallahassee
It was decades ago, but Dolly Parton once lit up Tallahassee in a flash of rhinestones and repartee. The beloved country music icon, who died Aug. 25 at age 80 in Nashville , visited the area at least twice in her storied musical career, almost 30 years apart. Her visit to Florida State University for a performance at Tully Gym in November 1977 was front page news in the Tallahassee Democrat. Under the headline "The New Dolly Parton turns 'em on at Tully," reporter and future entertainment editor Ellen Templeton scored a one-on-one interview with the legendary songstress. Here's what she wrote. Remembering when Dolly Parton toured in Tallahassee Even with the outlandish wig, chiffon and jersey costume and dangling rhinestone earrings, Dolly Parton is as real as moonshine whiskey and chewing tobacco. "I'm just a gaudy person," Dolly said in an interview Thursday afternoon before her evening performance in Tully Gym. She grew up in a dirt-poor family of 12 children in the Smoky Mountain foothills of eastern Tennessee. Today, the girl who picked out tunes on a homemade guitar and used mercurochrome for lipstick has enough money to buy all the guitars and expensive makeup a star could
