Fox Theater shows special screening of Olmos’ work. Bakersfield, California

“Actor Edward James Olmos was a no-show at Monday night’s free special screening of his self-directed film, “Walkout,” at the Fox Theater in downtown Bakersfield.

But no one seemed terribly disappointed that the Oscar-nominee didn’t make it.

After all, 30-year-old Bodie Olmos, the director’s son who also acts in the film, was there — and so was a packed house of movie-goers.”
