WILMINGTON, N.C. — Sinking a hole-in-one is always against the odds. But at least credit the filmmakers behind the Wilmington-made comedy “Birdies” with swinging for the fences.
If that’s a bit of a mixed sports metaphor — and it is — consider it a tribute to the passionate and entertaining, if not always bright, characters who populate the independent movie.
After a sold-out premiere at this city’s Thalian Hall last month, “Birdies,” which was filmed in this coastal town during the depths of pandemic lockdown, debuted Feb. 22 on BirdiesTheMovie.com as a streaming-on-demand option.
