Mario Louis Gandolfo presents “Geronimo’s Revenge”

March Speaker Series and Member Meeting - 

Speaker Series will continue for the Winter season on March 16, 2023 at 2:00PM Arizona time.

Mario Gandolfo describes himself as “a wandering soul stopping just long enough to experience all that life has to offer.” He started a little screenplay project in June of 2021; it has now turned into a full-length feature. It’s his first endeavor into the world of movie making. He is writer, producer and director, basically funding this film on his own. Meet him, and discuss the experience of movie-making. Mario will be in the desert outside of Tombstone filming the day before he visits us. Get an update on the latest of this exciting project!

The screenplay has currently won 14 Awards for best full length screenplay, most recently with the Wild Bunch Film Festival out of Tucson. You can access more information and even see a teaser video by looking up “Geronimo’s Revenge” on You Tube. 

Breaking news! Mario has won another award for GERONIMO'S REVENGE. He is now in the running again for best full length screenplay with the Sunny Side Up Film Festival out of Oklahoma.  https://www.brenrockproductions.com/SSUFF-2023-SELECTIONS.html

The story is of a blood feud between Geronimo and an Arizona territory rancher named Quincy. Quincy lives outside Tombstone in the desert and killed Geronimo's son by mistake. This takes place in 1881. Just after Geronimo and a small band of Apache warriors have escaped from the San Carlos Reservation yet again after feeding off the free government handouts for the winter. They are now pillaging and killing across the Southwest while making their way back to the safety of old Mexico. Will Geronimo escape the US Army and slip into old Mexico unmolested, or will he seek out the man who killed his son, Runs Swiftly, and exact the ultimate revenge, "DEATH"?

The presentation will be live in the Anza Room and also presented on Zoom.
You will also be able to catch the presentation after the fact on YouTube.
