Remembering the 'Good Ole Days':  New Comedy About Lessons, Laughs, and Family Bonding

Do you remember the ‘good old days’ when the entire neighborhood helped to raise a child, when kids actually played outside and when there was such thing as R-E-S-P-E-C-T? These are the things that Olla Mae is teaching her granddaughter Nettie Mae in the hilarious new comedy Good Ole Days.

Nettie Mae is sent to live with Olla Mae after child protective services threatens to take her away from her partying and abusive mother, Mae Mae. Nettie Mae meets unforgettable characters, Deacon Jesse and Sharkey who are respectively, old school and new school womanizers. Nettie Mae also interacts with Olla Mae’s neighborhood friends who teach her about how things used to be in the good old days.


Olla Mae, a less than typical bikini-wearing grandma, takes Nettie Mae on a gut-busting roller coaster ride of laughs, reminiscing about the past while trying to protect her family’s future. This family friendly story will have you laughing, crying and praying all while you’re on the edge of your seat.

Originally released as a stage play, Good Ole Days was created by Bessie Ludd, founder and CEO of Spoken Images Productions — an entertainment group of actors, writers, singers, and dancers — to memorialize family traditions and highlight the time when life was simpler, and in many ways better. Ludd partnered with film director Carl Millender of Star Maxx Media to make Good Ole Days a feature film. Millender is credited with changing the landscape of dramatic television in Atlanta with his national TV series “Atlanta Homicide.”


Good Ole Days stars Tommy Ford (“Martin”), Rita Leigh (Olla Mae), June Ludd, and J Cecilia. Good Ole Days premieres June 25, 2012 at the Porter Sanford Performing Arts Center in Decatur, Ga.

The film will soon be in a theater near you. Be sure to stay connected with the actors and up-to-date on the movie by becoming a fan www.facebook.com/#!/GoodOleDaysMovie and at www.goodoledaysthemovie.com.
