Movie Scene Queen: Community benefiting from her mission

Merecedes Howze seemed to always go to the movies.

She transformed her love for cinema, creating a blog, reviewing movies and writing about the booming film industry in Pittsburgh.

She soon began receiving invites to premiers and advanced screenings, and even landed a job, critiquing films for the New Pittsburgh Courier.

But it wasn’t enough for Howze.

She decided to find a way for others in the community to enjoy the magic of movies.

As Pittsburgh’s Action News 4 Anchor Mike Clark found out, Howze is marking her 5th Anniversary of being Pittsburgh’s “Movie Scene Queen,” bringing thousand of people to local theaters, spreading her passion with children and families.
