     On February 3, 2023, old-school music invaded the Lauderhill Performing Arts Center.  Mayor Ken Thurston of Lauderhill hosted a night of feel-good music during the 21st Annual MLK Old School Music Celebration, featuring headliner SWV, along with performing artists Maxi Priest, Blackstreet, and special guest the Old Skool Gang.  DJ Big Man Kelly kept the crowd on their feet spinning hit after hit.  

     The writers and directors of this amazing, tech-savvy mystery thriller know how to cut things close. That’s because they were the editors on the cult classic Searching. Back in 2018, that taut dra/hor/mys starred John Cho and built its fear from the ground up—with normal people. That movie’s writer/director Aneesh Chaganty and co-writer Sev Ohanian produced this new spawn. That movie’s editors, Will Merrick and Nick Johnson, wrote and directed Missing. A very modern feel for storytelling using electronic components is being passed along in this standalone sequel.
