Born in Atlanta in the 1940s, then a segregated, provincial town during Jim Crow, Marvin Arrington, Sr. grew up to help galvanize the city of his birth into the international, cosmopolitan metropolis that it is today. The documentary, 'BO LEGS', takes viewers on the journey of one man's love for a city and his visionary work for the city's eventual transformation. Battling through the blows of racism and meshing with political opponents over the years, Marvin "Bo Legs" Arrington, Sr. not only found his way but made his mark in civic duty and social justice.
'BO LEGS' features a stellar lineup of influential Atlanta leaders helping to narrate Arrington's impactful story over the past four decades. Such notable figures include: Ambassador Andrew Young, Mayor Shirley Franklin, Governor Roy Barnes, Federal Judge Clarence Cooper, Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, TV News Anchor Monica Kaufman Pearson, and Mayor Kasim Reed. 'BO LEGS' appeared in six film festivals--premiering at the Bronze Lens Film Festival--and ran for six months on Delta Air Lines' In-Flight Entertainment. 'BO LEGS' is now available for streaming.
