‘Wayward Kin' to premiere at Archer City's Royal Theater
ARCHER CITY (KFDX/KJTL) — Archer City is no stranger to cinema. Larry McMurtry's novels 'The Last Picture Show' and 'Texasville' were partially shot in Archer City, and the local theater has become a landmark of American cinema. That history is what brought one project to the town. Wayward Kin is an Anytown Pictures film about a custody case, which can be a tough subject matter, but that didn't make Adam Lowder shy away. Family fun at Jellystone this spring and summer break 'Sometimes you have to show some of the darkness in life to expose some of the light,' Lowder said. Lowder co-wrote the script and directed, produced, and acted in the film. He said the movie was only possible because of the small town. 'We can't tell you how many people donated time, money, resources to make our film possible,' Lowder said. 'We could not have made the movie without them.' As a 'thank you,' Lowder and the rest of Anytown Pictures decided to premiere the movie at The Royal Theater. Two 'Wayward Kin' special screenings are scheduled for April 25 and 26 at The Royal Theater. Both showings will begin at 7 p.m. Tickets can be purchased online, and a limited number are available. 'We don't care about festival awards; we don't care about the money, we don't care about a big sale,' Lowder said. 'We care about bringing it to you guys.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
