Two indie bookstores have connections with The Lowdown, a new FX/Hulu series starring Ethan Hawke as a used bookshop owner as well as self-described "truthstorian" and local media journalist in Tulsa, Okla. The booksellers were celebrating their contributions on social media this week as the series made its debut:
Magic City Books, Tulsa, Okla.: "Did you catch us in the first episode of The Lowdown? Big thanks to Sterlin and the amazing cast/crew for including MCB in this magical mosaic. And that writers room! WOW. Might just be the best show ever for book nerds!"
Dickson Street Bookshop, Fayetteville, Ark.: "If you're watching The Lowdown on FX/Hulu you might notice Ethan Hawke with some vintage crime paperbacks their production picked up from us last year when filming the pilot in Tulsa. Also, the always amazing Magic City Books in Tulsa is heavily featured."
