Uniquely Kentucky with Amber Philpott | Robby Chadwell, Filmmaker-Moonbow

Film director and writer William Robert Chadwell is a Corbin native who grew up watching classic 80’s films, idolizing people like Steven Spielberg and dreaming of one day producing a film of his own.  With no formal filmmaking experience Chadwell has made that dream come true with his first film, Moonbow.  Growing up in and around Cumberland Falls in southern Kentucky Chadwell had always heard the urban legends and myths surrounding the famous moonbow.  It’s a phenomena that happens when there is full moon over Cumberland Falls.

Chadwell’s film, Moonbow follows friends on an overnight camping trip that quickly learn the legends and stories surrounding the hills around them just might be true.  Shot on two Samsung Galaxy 9 phones and with a budget of $5000 this is Chadwell’s first film that is now showing in select places.
