Screened: Flooded Out Film Festival, 2003

No film that I
have seen in a long time as successfully presents a man and his own
wonderland, a microcosm in his own backyard.
--Steve Fesenmaier, film critic, Graffiti Magazine
The images in Mountain Memories provide nectar for the spirit, and, for
those working to end the ecocide of mountaintop removal, renewed
commitment to continue the work.
--Vivian Stockman, Ohio Valley Environmental Coalition.
How do we take this innate sense of what is West Virginia, and impart it
to someone who may never have visited there? How do we articulate what
makes us love it so? Jim Clark has done this for all of us.
--Kathy Mattea, singer-songwriter, from her forward in the book, Mountain
Memories: An Appalachian Sense of Place.
Included on Steve Fesenmaier’s "Ten Essential WV Films by WV Filmmakers."
