Never Another Well: A short film featuring St. James Infirmary


I have just received an email from a young filmmaker in Georgia, Bryson Mitchell. He wrote, directed, and stars in a short film, Never Another Well: A Bluesman's Last Song, that centers around "St. James Infirmary." The bluesman in the song is ... well, I guess they'll soon be putting a twenty-dollar gold piece on his watch chain.

Never Another Well is a poignant tale, sensitively executed. I urge you to stay to the end!

Written & Directed by Bryson Mitchell
Director of Photography: Jayden Sanders
Starring: Bryson Mitchell, Ke'ailey Nails, Gabriel Vargas
