Bruce Campbell and his wife, Ida Gearon, join the Jefferson Public Radio’s “Jefferson Exchange” to discuss their upcoming new film “Ernie & Emma,” which was shot entirely in Southern Oregon.
Ernie and Emma is a poignant tale about Ernie Tyler, a small-town pear salesman, and the journey he embarks on following the death of his beloved wife, Emma. After 25 years as an executive secretary, Emma leaves behind a detailed list of instructions regarding her ashes, which leads Ernie on a journey of challenging and reflective escapades. As Ernie navigates the road trip of their lives, Emma helps him confront his grief and encourages him to move forward, transforming his life in the process.
[Did you know that the Forestry Serve built a Big Foot “Trap” in Southern Oregon in the 1970s? Well, it did, and the movie used it as one of its locations!]
